Oliver B. Fischer commented on MNG-5743:
----------------------------------------
I am not agains mixins but for 95% of the problems huge POMs causes it would be
enough to store dependency problems in one file, profiles in different files
and so one. This is a simple, easy to understand and to implement way to help
us. I agree with you if you refuse to add the ability to spread the same
section across multiple files.
> Add support for splitted POMs
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-5743
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5743
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Design, Patterns & Best Practices
> Affects Versions: Issues to be reviewed for 4.x
> Reporter: Oliver B. Fischer
>
> Please add the possibility to split a POM into multiple files. A huge POM is
> difficult to maintain and it is also difficult to navigate through a huge
> POM.
> So it would be nice to have the possibility to split a POM into multiple
> files.
> This could be achived by adding an {{include}} directive or by supporting
> configuration directory as suggested in [Optional support for splitting up
> pom.xml in multiple files|http://docs.codehaus.org/x/BgSV].
> Adding this feature would be help to promoted Maven in new projects.
> Futhermore it would be helpful for all maintaining large Maven based projects.
