ModelUtils.clone doesn't clone plugin entries where inherited == false
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3700
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3700
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: POM
Affects Versions: 2.0.10
Reporter: John Casey
ModelUtils.clone(..) uses the ModelInheritanceAssembler under the covers, with
assembleAsInheritance == true. This is not strictly true, since inheritance
semantics are different in some ways from clone semantics.
This becomes an issue where plugins are concerned, especially when the plugin
entry in the POM contains inherited == "false", which will lead to the cloning
process *excluding* that plugin from the clone result.
