Robert Stupp commented on MSHADE-413:
-------------------------------------
But... even with {{promoteTransitiveDependencies==true}}, the shade plugin can
still loop forever rewriting the {{dependency-reduced-pom.xml}} file. So there
is also something else at play in the maven-shade-plugin.
> Maven share plugin enters endless loop
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: MSHADE-413
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-413
> Project: Maven Shade Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.2.4
> Reporter: Robert Stupp
> Priority: Critical
>
> {{ShadeMojo.createDependencyReducedPom()}} pulls in {{origDeps =
> project.getDependencies()}} and later modifies these {{Dependency}} objects.
> This leads to a
> [reproducible|https://github.com/projectnessie/nessie/issues/3678] endless
> loop (see below).
> If the Shade plugin's not using the {{Dependency}} objects "owned by Maven
> itself" (by setting {{promoteTransitiveDependencies}} to {{true}}), the build
> passes fine.
> I think, _modifying_ the {{Dependency}} objects "owned by Maven itself" is
> bad for two reasons (which IMO justify the increased priority of this
> ticket):
> # the reproducible endless loop
> # it breaks the correctness of the project build - at least plugins running
> after the {{shade}} goal that use those dependencies.
