> I thought MWAR-8 had fixed my issue but it seems to still exist. Correct me
> if I'm wrong but doing incremental builds with this war plugin is not
> possible. All the web app sources get overwritten regardless if they have
> been modified or not. Incremental build were possible in Maven 1 because it
> was ANT based. This version uses plexus FileUtils which overwrites without
> regard to if the target file exists or older than the source. Besides the
> time issue, overwriting the web.xml each time makes my context reload since
> the context runs on tomcat from the target location. I think this is a
> reasonable configuration but if there is a better way, let me know. Building
> inplace wars is not an option as it dirties the source.
> If we are in agreement, I may be able to provide a patch.
