Paul Benedict commented on MNG-3845:
------------------------------------
You guys needs to add a new <inherit> attribute so MNG-2807 can be solved. In
essence, we wanted to put our software engineers in the parent POM and inherit
them in the children.
> Unintended inheritance of parent elements overriden by children

> Parent POM snippet:
> {code:xml}
> <ciManagement>
> <system>parent-ci</system>
> <url>http://parent.url/ci</url>
> <notifiers>
> <notifier>
> <type>irc</type>

> </notifier>
> </notifiers>
> </ciManagement>

> Child POM snippet:
> {code:xml}
> <ciManagement>
> <system>child-ci</system>
> <url>http://child.url/ci</url>
> </ciManagement>
> {code}
> Effective child POM:
> {code:xml}
> <ciManagement>
> <system>child-ci</system>
> <url>http://child.url/ci</url>
> <notifiers>
> <notifier>
> <type>irc</type>

> <sendOnSuccess>false</sendOnSuccess>
> <sendOnWarning>false</sendOnWarning>
> <configuration>
> <address>irc://parent.url/#ci</address>
> </configuration>
> </notifier>
> </notifiers>
> </ciManagement>
> {code}
> i.e. the notifiers are erroneously inherited although the child has specified
> its own CI management. Happens to a couple of other elements like
> {{<distributionManagement>}}, too. It appears the all-or-nothing style
> inheritance present in Maven 2.x for certain elements is not properly
> emulated on trunk.
