elharo opened a new pull request, #1123: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-compiler-plugin/pull/1123
Improves the documentation for the `incrementalCompilation` parameter and the deprecated `useIncrementalCompilation` parameter (issue #777, [MCOMPILER-563]). The name "incremental compilation" gives the misleading impression that the plugin compiles a single changed class together with its dependents, like an IDE incremental compiler. In reality the plugin only runs a change-detection algorithm that decides whether to recompile the whole module or only the modified source files. This is a documentation-only change (Javadoc). No Java code behavior is modified. The updated Javadoc is what gets rendered into the plugin's published parameter documentation (plugin-info `.html`).
