Support for patching
--------------------

                 Key: MASSEMBLY-243
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-243
             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 2.1
            Reporter: Frank Cornelis


What I'm still missing from Ant is the ability to apply patches to assemblies 
that you're creating via the maven-assembly-plugin.
In our project we're using JBoss AS bundled as a ZIP. To create a final 
distribution of the product we unpack and then have to change quite some 
configuration files within the JBoss AS tree. The problem right now is that for 
every JBoss AS update we have to re-patch the configuration files manually. It 
would be great if the maven-assembly-plugin would have inherent support for 
patches. That way it's also more clear what configuration section you're 
changing exactly.
