> SettingsUtils.copySettings does not perform a deep copy
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4657
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4657
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Settings
> Affects Versions: 2.2.1
> Reporter: Edouard Hue
> Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.0-alpha-3
>
>
> The org.apache.maven.settings.SettingsUtils.copySettings method only creates
> a new Settings instance and then copies all its attributes by reference,
> including lists such as profiles or proxies. Hence, modifying the copy can
> produce unexpected side effects on the original object.
> Expected behavior is that a deep copy is returned, or documentation should
> mention this behaviour. Maybe make it implement Clonable ?
