Joseph Marques commented on MNG-3690:
-------------------------------------
hmm...investigating more into this it appears it might have to do with weird
caching. if i just change the value of some property at some parent-parent
pom.xml, the new value does not trickle down if i try to execute "mvn" from the
child level. i need to path up to the ancestor, build "mvn -N install" from
there, and then go back down to the child. this makes using properties set at
parent levels rather clunky. i want to be able to change the property at a
parent level, and have that take immediate effect if i execute from any child
module. is there a way to enable this?
