Optionally don't delete the 'target ' directory ------------------------------------------------
Key: MCLEAN-25 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-25 Project: Maven 2.x Clean Plugin Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Joern Huxhorn Would it be possible to add an option to the clean-plugin so only the content of the target folder(s) are deleted but not the directory itself? This would help developers using windoze quite a lot since: - clean fails if you happen to have opened a command line with target as the current dir. - windoze closes explorer windows pointing to deleted directories, so you have to reopen the windows after a clean install Those problems would both be solved by an option like deleteRoot=false or something. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
