Anders Hammar commented on MINVOKER-97:
---------------------------------------
Should the user have to enable merging by configuraton? That would preserve the
current default behavior. BUT, I argue that the current behavior of ignoring
the settings of the initiating process is wrong (a bug) and therefore the
default behavior should be to use it. I'd even go so far that I'd argue that it
shouldn't be possible to turn off. If you want a specific setting you need to
specify that in the specified settings file.
So here's my proposed solution:
* If no settings file is specified in the plugin configuration, use the one of
the invoking process.
* If a settings file is specified in the plugin configuration, merge it with
the one of the invoking process. Coniguration in the specified settings file is
dominant.
* In both cases the current behavior of local repository should be preserved.
> Add possibility to inherit settings.xml from calling process
