> Using SVN for a rather big project, we tend to use SVN sparse checkouts, i.e. we do not checkout the whole project. Example:
> Full Project (as in Repository):
> Parent
>   pom.xml (contains A and B as modules)
>   --> A
>      pom.xml
>   --> B
>      pom.xml
> Now, do a checkout (svn co xxx --depth children; svn update --set-depth inifity A)
> Working Copy:
> Parent
>   pom.xml (contains A and B as modules)
>   --> A
>      pom.xml
>   --> B (no pom!!, since we only did a sparse checkout)
> Now, this setup is not buildable, since maven complains (rightfully) about a missing pom for B. 
> What I propose is an option to change this behaviour with a command-line option (-imm, --ignore-missing-modules) that would simply ignore missing modules during pom resolution.
