Justin Ryan commented on MANTTASKS-231:
---------------------------------------
In retrospect, please reject this defect. M2_REPO is not a standard
environment, even though I wish it wash.
> AbstractArtifactTask doesn't look for M2_REPO for localRepository
> -----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MANTTASKS-231
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-231
> Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: pom task
> Affects Versions: 2.1.3
> Reporter: Justin Ryan
>
> The AbstractArtifactTask assembles a Settings object, and after it does this
> it ensures there's a settings.getLocalRepository(). In which case it'll
> default to _newFile( System.getProperty( "user.home" ), ".m2", "repository"
> )_. Most users would expect it to attempt to use the environment variable
> M2_REPO, which is used by maven.
