[jira] [Created] (MCOMPILER-515) Plugin is NOT incremental, so let it go

Tamas Cservenak created MCOMPILER-515:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Plugin is NOT incremental, so let it go
                 Key: MCOMPILER-515
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-515
             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Tamas Cservenak


The maven-compiler-plugin is NOT incremental, so we should just let it go. The shared incremental stuff is broken since it's last factual code change (2012!).

Moreover, the broken incremental stuff just makes us look bad, see the "mvn clean install" vs "mvn verify" issue: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeQj-IbSxJI]

Accept it, that this plugins is not incremental, so it should not make users believe it is. Moreover, the bugs in this feature exist for too long, that just cause harm to users and to project as whole.
