Description
Rewrite usage#the-deploy-deploy-mojo to clarify that the distributionManagement can be also configured without modifying the `pom`.
Currently, the documentation states:
To enable this mojo to function, you must include a valid <distributionManagement/> section POM, [...]
Suggesting that the pom must specify this element and must be modified accordingly. This suggestion is reinforced in deploy-mojo#altDeploymentRepository :
<altDeploymentRepository>
Specifies an alternative repository to which the project artifacts should be deployed (other than those specified in <distributionManagement>).
(my interpretation is that `distributionManagement` must be present)
Unfortunately, this mislead me to think that the only way to provide this configuration was by modifying the pom. I later found that `altDeploymentRepository` could be used instead of the `distributionManagement` in the pom.
