Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting, and documentation from a central place. + +The core release is independent of plugin releases. Further releases of plugins will be made separately. See the [PluginList][1] for more information. + +If you have any questions, please consult: + +- the web site: [https://maven.apache.org/][2] +- the maven-user mailing list: [https://maven.apache.org/mailing-lists.html](/mailing-lists.html) +- the reference documentation: [https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.9.6/](/ref/3.9.6/) + +## Overview About the Changes + +Regression fixes and other improvements from Maven 3.9.5. All users already on Maven 3.9.x are advised to upgrade. + +This release updates Resolver to version [1.9.18](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12320628&version=12353878). Maven itself received new features as ability to exclude +plugins from validation, upgraded Eclipse Sisu version and updated plugins in core bindings. + +The full list of changes can be found in our [issue management system][4]. + +### Potentially Breaking Core Changes (if migrating from 3.8.x) + +* The Maven Resolver transport has changed from Wagon to "native HTTP", see [Resolver Transport guide](/guides/mini/guide-resolver-transport.html). +* Maven 2.x was auto-injecting an ancient version of `plexus-utils` dependency into the plugin classpath, and Maven 3.x continued doing this to preserve backward compatibility. Starting with Maven 3.9, it does not happen anymore. This change may lead to plugin breakage. The fix for affected plugin maintainers is to explicitly declare a dependency on `plexus-utils`. The workaround for affected plugin users is to add this dependency to plugin dependencies until issue is fixed by the affect [...] +* Mojos are prevented to bootstrap new instance of `RepositorySystem` (for example by using deprecated `ServiceLocator`), they should reuse `RepositorySystem` instance provided by Maven instead. See [MNG-7471](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7471). +* Each line in `.mvn/maven.config` is now interpreted as a single argument. That is, if the file contains multiple arguments, these must now be placed on separate lines, see [MNG-7684](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7684). +* System and user properties handling cleanup, see [MNG-7556](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7556). As a consequence, this may introduce breakage in environments where the user properties were used to set system properties or other way around, for example see [MNG-7887](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/MNG/issues/MNG-7887). +* Plugins and extensions used by your build are checked against Maven supported APIs and conventions: this "plugin validation" may report WARNINGs at the end of your build. See [plugin validation documentation](../../guides/plugins/validation/) to better understand what to do when your build suffers from such warnings. + +## Complete Release Notes + +See [complete release notes for all versions][5] + +[0]: ../../download.html +[1]: ../../plugins/index.html +[2]: https://maven.apache.org/ +[4]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12316922&version=12353686 +[5]: ../../docs/history.html
