Benjamin Muschko updated MNG-8008:
----------------------------------
Description:
Extensions can only be configured in the project directory under
{{{}.mvn/extensions.xml{}}}. Right now, there's no option to provide an
extension to all Maven projects running on the same machine. Therefore, the
same boilerplate code needs to be copied from project to project.
For example, say you want to add the [Develocity Maven
extension|https://scans.gradle.com/#maven] for all projects built by a CI
agent, then this currently not possible would checking the XML into every
project's source code. For bigger enterprises, this would involve a lot of
labor or require the use or implementation for an automated script/tool.
It should be possible to place an {{extensions.xml}} in the Maven home
directory or configure it as part of {{settings.xml}} to provide the extension
centrally.
This issue is related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5820 though
the mentioned use case is different.
