Thanks Brett.

The MAVEN_OPTS suggestion looks great and I will give it a try. Thank you.

For a particular Maven installation, would it be possible to specify build.properties in MAVEN_HOME? Otherwise, wouldn't each user on a local machine have to set this to use the local repository?

Thank you again.

Unfortunately, Cygwin doesn't figure that out properly, so you have to
put it under Window's HOME. If you do echo %HOME% in cmd.exe, you'll see
it is probably "C:\Documents And Settings\tek1".

I might investigate this and either have cygwin do a translation of the
HOME variable, or specify user.home on the command line.

You can probably bypass all of this for now and do
export MAVEN_OPTS=-Duser.home=`cygpath -pw /home/tek1`, then put
build.properties in there.

Cheers,
Brett
