But why would anyone want to set it to true, and why is > true the default value? "true" is the default value, because this behavior has been the only behavior available prior to Ant 1.5. I remember that I was pretty surprised about it a while ago since <style> behaved different form the other directoy based tasks http://svn.eu.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=271564 If we had chosen to use a different default value, we had risked breaking builds that relied on the old behaviour - and I vaguely recall that Struts' build did at that time since I think we broke its Gump builds once or twice.
