Description

• We have a lot of projects in our CI system (Jenkins) where we run mvn clean deploy site-deploy.
• Because of this, the phase generate-sources resp. generate-test-sources does not need to rerun. It might even give a different result from the previous run during the default lifecycle.
• Attached is a patch (including a IT) which will introduce two new goals, javadoc-no-fork and test-javadoc-no-fork, which will just skip the fork during site-run.

In our case, e.g. enforcer:enforce, jacoco:prepare-agent and a homegrown configuration plugin are executed over and over again, which:

• leads to confusion when application developers look on the console and
• slows down the builds.
