- [ ] Format the pull request title like `[MNG-XXX] SUMMARY`,
       where you replace `MNG-XXX` and `SUMMARY` with the appropriate JIRA issue.
 - [ ] Also format the first line of the commit message like `[MNG-XXX] SUMMARY`.
       Best practice is to use the JIRA issue title in both the pull request title and in the first line of the commit message.

Inheritance in Maven

 In order the understand how inheritance works in Maven there are a few notions that you must be familiar with:

 * The maven super model

 * how parent poms are processed

 * the order in which elements in the POM are overridden

 * minimum element-set for a valid project pom


Maven super model

 Inheritance is recursive in Maven but there is a special model which is the implicit super parent in the lineage

Making and Submitting Changes
--------------

We accept Pull Requests via GitHub. The [developer mailing list][dev-ml-list] is the
main channel of communication for contributors.  
There are some guidelines which will make applying PRs easier for us:
+ Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work (this is usually the master branch).
  Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
+ Make commits of logical units.

  the network is not). Therefore, let's concentrate on the state where no
  network <beyond localhost> exists, and leave the more extreme state to users
  to diagnose and correct as necessary.

* Why is Offline Mode Important?

  Offline mode is essential for breaking the requirement that m2 operate in a
  network-connected environment. It means legitimizing a development environment
  in which there is no network connection, and providing a robust m2 service

Documentation

More information can be found on [Apache Maven Homepage][maven-home].
Questions related to the usage of Maven should be posted on
the [Maven User List][users-list].


Where can I get the latest release?
-----------------------------------
You can download the release source from our [download page][maven-download].

  That should be all there is to it.

  Remove set/getMojoConfiguration(..), as it will become obsolete.

* MavenSession

  We may need to enable the context injection here, since this will be
  instantiated per-project. If we always inject the same context parameters,
  and are careful to inject nulls where things are missing, we should be

This directory contains Jansi native libraries extracted from Jansi JAR.

You can add your own build for platforms not natively supported by Jansi.
See here [1] on how to compile for your platform and here [2] how libraries
follow Jansi's directory and filename conventions.

We have a lifecycle mapping for the packaging of *jar* below. You see that for this packaging we have a *default* lifecycle and a list of phases where each phase is a comma separated list of goals to run and they are in the form groupId:artifactId:version.

// 3 the component model -> interfaces for the plugin

// The plugin manager should load up a directory structure of plugins.
// - a plugin per directory where the plugin is present with its deps
// - a plugin that has its dependencies packaged up with it
// - implement filters and create a test where a plugin fails if the right classes are not filtered
// - plugins with a dependency the same as the core but different versions, make it fail then fix it

* Group configuration

 As far as properties go for an entire build the maven.properties could be placed at
 the top of the group but I'm not really sure how this might work. There could probably
 also be a directory for plugins.xml and maven.properties.

* Project configuration

 At the project level all configuration is achieved by tweaking the POM. One of the differences between
