[MNG-2807] ciManagement from parent is not merging with children

• Type: Bug

Description

If I define the following in my parent pom:

<ciManagement>
  <system>continuum</system>
  <url>http://blah</url>
</ciManagement>

and then in the child pom I have the following:

<ciManagement>
  <notifiers>
    <notifier>
      <type>mail</type>
      <configuration>
        <address>blah</address>
      </configuration>
    </notifier>
  </notifiers>
</ciManagement>

The ciManagement for the effective pom lacks the system and url properties from the parent pom. Seems like it should be merging them but isn't. This would helpful for reducing code duplication.
