[jira] Commented: (MNG-4112) Set property containing the currently executing maven version.

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4112?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=171630#action_171630 ] 

Brett Porter commented on MNG-4112:
-----------------------------------

from the thread on the ML, it sounded like it was acceptable usage to grab the RuntimeInformation component (but add an integration test to Maven to make sure it survives any future refactoring).

> It would be helpful to have an easy way to access the current version of maven.  This might be accomplished by setting a property like "maven.version" during startup that would be available to the pom and/or to plugins.  This could be used to record what version of maven was used during the build to facilitate build reproducibility.
