khos2ow commented on issue #2343: [WIP] CLOUDSTACK-10161: Use Maven wrapper URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2343#issuecomment-347904651 IMO It's not just replacing one tool with another, it: - requires less dependency to packages installed on ones machine, given that there's no universal way to install Maven even in one specific OS/distro and one specific version of maven itself. - gives consistency, kind of the same way we have `.java-version` and `.python-version`. So everyone has and uses the exact same version of maven, everywhere, everytime. - and gives us control of that version. If -for whatever reason- Maven needs to be upgraded we will only need to change one jar file and one properties in the codebase itself.
