John Casey updated MNG-2027:
----------------------------
Fix Version: (was: documentation)
2.0.5
> Document POM inheritance
> ------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-2027
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2027
> Project: Maven 2
> Type: Task
> Components: Documentation: General
> Reporter: John Casey
> Fix For: 2.0.5
>
>
> Document in detail how parent POMs are merged with local POM data. In
> particular:
> * how are lists of things merged
> * how do local POMs override parent data
> * how can one suppress inheritance of a plugin
> * how can one control merge-vs-append in plugin configurations
> * how does the <parent><version/> affect the requirement for a locally
> specified <version/>
> How does managed information differ??
> Managed info (dependencyManagement, pluginManagement) sets the standard
> configuration, version, etc for that information. This standard can be used
> in opt-in fashion by child POMs, BUT WILL ONLY BE APPLIED WHERE IT IS
> REFERENCED.
> Document the way in which managed info is merged, and how it can be
> referenced and overridden.
