Description

The attached multimodule example fails to build when run from gitbash on windows 10. I've derived it from this example https://github.com/jamesward/maven-multi-module-example but modified to match my scenario.

It works fine from CMD shell on the same machine with the same Apache Maven install. It's only with gitbash that the issue occurs. I see that the mvn launcher has specific sections for mingw derived shells like gitbash, so possibly something is wrong there.

 

The issue occurs when the project has no artifacts yet in .m2 repo. So please remove .m2/repository/com/jamesward prior to testing.

The transition from working to non-working in gitbash is with the addition of the parent section in the toplevel pom.xml, so there seems to be something wrong with the parent resolution in the toplevel when run from gitbash

Steps:

• remove .m2/repository/com/jamesward
• unzip the example
• run gitbash in that folder
• mvn clean install
• fails to build
• change to cmd.exe
• mvn clean install
• builds correctly
