ewiegs4 commented on issue #289: [MNG-6772] - Prevent Super POM central entry from overriding URL: https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/289#issuecomment-540811006 > @ewiegs4 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-4645 @michael-o I see. I definitely don't see how this change could end up causing an issue with removing central from the super pom and any hard-coded locations, but depending on how the linked JIRA is implemented I could definitely see that change causing a regression of the issue I'm fixing here. What we want to be able to do is override the `central` definition in a project's POM, and allow that definition to win _when no other repository definitions are present_ on any parent POMs, dependencies, import POMs, etc. throughout the entire build. We want to be able to do this without needing any configuration of repositories/mirrors in the settings.xml. I'll follow the linked JIRA so I can stay in the loop on any discussions there, but I don't think there is any reason to hold off on this change.
