Seth Call commented on MNG-2971:
--------------------------------
Since this issue is 6 years old, maybe it's useful to give use-cases as to why
one would want to do this.
This thread discusses why myself and others would like to variablize the
version field (summary; to create a scheme where the SCM is the primary source
of version info)

> Here is a sample pom file
> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
> xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
> http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";>

> <packaging>pom</packaging>
> <version>${prop.version}</version>
> <name>My Project</name>

> </properties>
> </project>
> The installed pom is into
> ${localRepository}/com/xxx/root/root/3.0.20/root-3.0.20.pom
> is the same as the project pom file but the version referenced into the
> installed pom file is ${prop.version} instead of 3.0.20
> which creates problem to artifacts depending of this one.
> Thanks in advance
