----------------------------------
Summary: Avoid non-compile goals (e.g., test) for --also-make
introduced modules
Key: MNG-7036
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7036
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Volkan Yazici
It is a common practice to execute goals for a single module, e.g., {{mvn -pl
son verify}}. Though if there exists a dependency to another module, one needs
to provide the extra {{-am (--also-make)}} flag, which repeats the requested
goal for the dependency modules too. This is not a desirable behavior in many
circumstances. For instance, consider: {{mvn -am -pl son verify}}. Here it is
highly likely that the user only wants to verify {{son}}, not its dependencies.
I would really appreciate an extra configuration property to avoid executing
non-compile goals on dependencies introduced by {{--also-make}}.
