Aaron Digulla commented on MNG-2553:
------------------------------------
I have a different use case: I often need to deploy existing third party
projects to our internal repository. Not all of them have
distributionManagement elements and not all of them use your properties-scheme.
Currently, I have to find the parent POM (and possibly check out another
project), add the distributionManagement there, deploy it and only then I can
deploy the project.
It would be really useful to be able to create a profile which just contains a
distributionManagement for my internal repo so I can deploy anything into it
without having to edit the original POM.
Because that either gives me a file that I must not check in (so the project is
always in a "needs commit" state) or, even worse, I might accidentally commit
it and ruin the day for other people.
Please reconsider.

> There is a good use case where this would be very useful.
> E.g. I develop a plugin in mojo-sandbox and want to test it in an environment
> other than the one that I developed it on (e.g. a computer at work). I check
> out the plugin to this, build and then want to deploy to another repository
> (e..g a company's internal repository). I don't want to fiddle with the
> pom.xml of the plugin, just refer to a profile in settings.xml.
