Milos Kleint commented on MNG-4368:
-----------------------------------
why should I always change versions when creating a branch? or a clone of
git/hg? don't you get conflicts all over the place when you attempt to merge
it? or even worse you can apply the branches' version to the main trunk.
I can imagine doing so for a long time branch (like m2 vs m3) but not for the
short term "will it work or not" experiments. That can't be the Right Canonical
Way.

> install:install (from maven-install-plugin) by default uses
> DefaultArtifactInstaller to install artifacts. DefaultArtifactInstaller in
> turn uses FileUtils.copyFile(), thereby overwriting destination files even if
> they are unchanged. It would be helpful if DefaultArtifactInstaller used
> FileUtils.copyFileIfModified() instead, at least as an option, to speed up
> the build process.
