Tamas Cservenak updated MNG-8758:
---------------------------------
Description:
We modified CLI way of working, and we opened up Maven to contain multiple CLI
tools by (almost) fully reusing the CLI infra we have, hence today we have
aside of existing {{mvn}} CLI tools like {{{}mvnenc{}}}, {{mvnsh}} and upcoming
{{mvnup}} and so on.
Problem with these "extra tools" is that they (along with their dependencies)
have to reside in Maven Core {{/lib}} directory. The tools like {{mvnenc}} and
{{mvnsh}} had "luck" that all they need (plexus sec dispatcher and JLine) are
already in core, but any new tool we'd like to add, may need dependencies not
present in {{{}/lib{}}}, potentially bloating it.
Proposal: Maven CLAPP – like "Maven Command Line App".
