Paul Benedict updated MNG-4258:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x)
> allow option for Make Reactor Mode to avoid cd-ing to toplevel
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4258
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4258
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Jörg Hohwiller
>
> With MNG-2576 the Make Reactor Mode was invented.
> However stated in MNG-3377 there is some disappointment about the solution:
> <cite>
> ... ask what's first maven users typical experience:
> You do "mvn install" on some module. Then maven starts working and says "oh,
> I need <foo> to be installed first".
> Then you "cd" around to <foo> and do "mvn install" and maven says "oh, I need
> <bar> to be installed first".
> In the end the users says "hey, why do I have to do all this, if maven has
> all information available in my POMs?
> ...
> However this can already be done with "--also-make-dependents" but maybe not
> in a way
> that users typically work.
> </cite>
> So what I suggest is that if "-amd" is specified without "-pl" then this is
> the same
> as cd ../../.... (or whatever up to root) and then doing
> mvn -amd -pl foo/bar/.... (all the way back)
> You might also prefer adding a new option for that.
