Donley R. P'Simer reopened MNG-2956:
------------------------------------
Wow, all it took was a quick "Ctrl-F" on http://maven.apache.org/settings.html
to find all the places in the reference for settings.xml that refer to
"user.dir" erroneously. I am sorry that I did not include this in my original
submission, but I would not consider this to be an exhaustive list as the error
seems to be pervasive. Here are the section headings I found it under when I
did my search on that page:
Introduction->Quick Overview
Settings Details->Simple Values
Settings Details->Profiles
Is this report more useful now?
> The documentation refers to system property "user.dir" when it should refer
> to "user.home"

> In several places the documentation for maven2 refers to the local repository
> and user settings.xml file being relative to the "${user.dir}" system
> property. Behavior suggests that it is actually the "${user.home}" system
> property that is being used. From the javadoc for System.getProperties() in
> jdk1.5:
> user.home User's home directory
> user.dir User's current working directory
