artifact property overwrites the existing properties
----------------------------------------------------
Key: IVY-587
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-587
Project: Ivy
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Gilles Scokart
Assignee: Gilles Scokart
Fix For: 2.0.0-beta-1
artifactproperty use getProject().setProperty() to set the property. This
method overwrite the properties if it already exists.
As the standard in ant is to not overwrite properties, we should do the same
(use getProject().setNewProperty()).
However, that would raise a backward compatibility issue. So, we should at
least provides an attribute to allow working as it worked before.
But I think complying with ant normal behavior is more important than keeping
full backward compatibilty in the context of a 2.0 release. So the default
should be to not overwrite.
