Konrad Windszus commented on MNG-6994:
--------------------------------------
The order of the profiles is determined by
{{org.apache.maven.model.profile.ProfileModelMerger}} which calls
{{mergeModelBase}} with the third argument being {{true}}. Profiles are
therefore processed in declaration order, but their elements are always added
first ({{sourceDominant = true}}). Therefore later profiles will
overwrite/prepend elements of earlier profiles.

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation: General
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> It is possible to declare remote repositories in {{settings.xml}} and
> {{pom.xml}}. While for the {{settings.xml}} it has to be given in a profile,
> for {{pom.xml}} it can be given in the top-level {{repositories}} element as
> well as in profiles. The order in which an artifact is tried to be resolved
> from the different remote repo is sometimes crucial to know (e.g. to speed up
> build times by first checking against remote repos having most of the
> artifacts like Maven Central)
> It would be nice to document this in
> https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html
