Yes, it would be a nice improvement to the documentation, we usually point people to the default properties file loaded: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/ivy/core/trunk/src/java/org/apache/ivy/core/settings/ivy.properties With some documentation in the properties file I guess it would be mostly enough (and always up to date).
