Delany commented on MNG-5659:
-----------------------------
[~breun] to solve your company issue I would use the properties-maven-extension
to set the *git.dir.worktree* property that all the plugins could use. I
stopped using when I found out how to build configuration files into a
dependency for the plugins, e.g.
[https://code.revelc.net/formatter-maven-plugin/examples.html#basic-configuration-using-external-resource]
What if settings were treated the same way? Make another scope for them
{code:java}
<dependency>
<groupId>com.company.project</groupId>
<artifactId>settings</artifactId>
<scope>settings</scope>
</dependency> {code}
> Project specific settings.xml

> It would be useful to have a settings.xml file next to the project pom that
> could contain project specific settings. For example, when switching between
> projects it is sometimes necessary to also change the location of the local
> repository, or use a different set of repositories and/or mirror settings for
> each project.
> If a settings.xml file could be included with a project checkout, then the
> repositories needed for the build could be included (instead of putting them
> in the pom) along with any other project specific settings.
> The tricky part is intelligently handling multi-module projects. For a
> multi-module project I don't want to include a separate settings.xml file for
> each directory. So Maven could recursively check each parent directory until
> it either (1) finds a settings.xml, (2) finds a directory with no pom.xml, or
> (3) finds the root directory.
