Konrad Windszus commented on MNG-6303: -------------------------------------- A potential fix could be to replace https://github.com/apache/maven/blob/master/apache-maven/src/bin/mvn#L170 by {code} cat "$1" | echo | tr -s '\n' ' ' {code} That would allow basically every bourne shell feature to be used within at least the {{.mvn/jvm.config}}. > .mvn/jvm.config should allow to resolve environment variables > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-6303 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6303 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Bootstrap & Build > Affects Versions: 3.5.0 > Reporter: Konrad Windszus > > With the mechanism of having project-specific maven options being specified > in {{.mvn/maven.config}} and {{.mvn/jvm.config}} (MNG-6267) it is often handy > to share those settings among multiple developers (i.e. via maintaining it > via the SCM). Unfortunately the mechanism does not support resolving > environment variables, which makes it hard to deal with user-specific > directories or settings. Please support resolving environment variables > through a special pattern like {{$ENV_NAME}} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
