> Optional <include> ivysettings directives
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: IVY-1392
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1392
> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Yanus Poluektovich
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: optional-include.patch
>
>
> To allow for VCS-friendly customization of dependency resolution process, a
> feature that allows for files referenced in an <include> directive of an
> ivysettings.xml file to be missing without it triggering an error.
> With such a feature, it would be possible to write a global ivysettings.xml
> file that references a default setup of resolvers/repositories for a project,
> commit it into a VCS and then never edit it. Instead, an "optional include"
> directive will point to a file with standardized name, say,
> ivysettings-local.xml. The file may be missing (which results in the
> project-default configuration being used), or a developer can create such a
> file and define an alternative resolution configuration for his own use. The
> VCS can be configured to ignore the ivysettings-local.xml file, thus
> absolving the developer of the need to ensure manually at each check-in that
> the file is not committed into the VCS.
> Currently, a similar feature is implemented for properties files.
> Unfortunately, it is impossible to, for example, override a project-default
> resolver with a user-specific one only via use of properties.
