It is not currently possible to change global settings.xml

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3611. You can, however,
override all settings you need, including location of local
maven repository, in user settings.xml file which is
configurable in m2eclipse preferences
(Window->Preferences->Maven->Installations). Let me know if
this does not answer your question.
I wanted to try to provide a patch for that issue.
Eugene, I see Maven <code>Configuration#setGlobalSettingsFile</code>
interface already accepts a global settings file location. Is that not
the resolution to the issue? If it's not - what is missing so I can take
a shot at doing a patch.
There is no command line switch accepted by MavenCli that allows to
set location of that file when launching Maven in external JVM. You may
want to take this to the maven-dev list, because it might be involved as
I am not sure if any maven components making any assumptions about
location of that global settings file.
regards,
Eugene
