I'm very confused by this PR, what I see: 1. we had 2 dir properties and they are deprecated in favor of 2 dir properties, can't we fix the previous ones? 2. the root dir is defined by the `.mvn` presence which is still not mainstream so will likely always fail instead of the top dir of linked project by the parent/child relationship defined by pom (which always works) So overall think the impl should be fixed (2) and we should probably collapse most of the properties we have, in particular for v4 where it will just be a clean up and avoid the redefinition of new props. The big pro of root dir is the ability to define absolutely a file config (style.xml is what i have in mind but there are multiple cases) so should absolutely be reliable for all projects, even without .mvn IMHO. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
