David Scourfield updated ARCHETYPE-538:
---------------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
> When re-entering property values after answering 'N' to confirm properties
> configuration during archetype:generate, prompts should default to the
> previously-entered values.

> Key: ARCHETYPE-538
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-538
> Project: Maven Archetype
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: David Scourfield
> Priority: Minor
>
> Let's say I define a value for groupId, artifactId, version, and a handful of
> custom properties via the interactive prompt when using archetype:generate,
> but at the confirmation stage I notice a mistake and hit 'N'. I've now got
> to retype everything again, which is extremely annoying.
> When the second prompt appears, default values should now be those which were
> previously entered, allowing the user to just hit ENTER for the values that
> were correctly entered last time around.
> This is especially frustrating given custom required properties which have
> default values that can't be edited during the first prompt (see
> ARCHETYPE-308) as you may enter a handful of correct values, but then need to
> choose N at the end to alter the default value of a property that you weren't
> allowed to enter a value for first time around.
