Description

Like in the provided sample projects, I have the following scenario : 3 modules (sibling) with the following inheritage graph :

grandfather <=== father <=== child

• grandfather (pom module) has

• a dependencyManagement block with some exclusions
• a pluginManagement block

• father (pom module) adds a plugins block to configure the compiler plugin

• child is a basic (empty) jar module

when mvn release:prepare-with-pom is performed on "child" the checked-in (svn) release-pom.xml has all the dependencies resolved BUT all the inherited plugins configuration is lost

To reproduce this with the provided sample projects :

• perform a mvn:install on grandfather & father
• import "child" in your svn repo
• change the scm block on "child" in order to checkout/in from your svn
• perform a mvn release:prepare-with-pom (on child)

You will see that in your tagged release-pom.xml the plugins configuration is lost.
