I fixed it by doing it indirectly like this. I just replaced all
references to ${user.home} to ${repoRoot}. Now I can swap out the
${user.home} with this. I'll admit it's not too pretty. I rather wanted
to use ${localRepository} but could not use it because it has a prefix
of "[local] -> file://".
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>default</id>
<properties>
<username>foo</username>
<password>bar</password>
<repoRoot>${user.home}\.m2\repository</repoRoot>
<!-- <repoRoot>C:\some\path</repoRoot> -->
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
<activeProfiles>
<activeProfile>default</activeProfile>
</activeProfiles>

Onderwerp: Re: Overriding ${user.home} from profile
Hi Peschier,
I believe ${user.home} is a property propagated from the JRE, rather
than
from maven. More than that - something looks "fishy" in such a use-case,
where you want to override the user's home dir....perhaps if you could
elaborate on your use case we can think of a better solution?
