Patrik Kleindl commented on MNG-3946:
-------------------------------------

Same issue here
Windows XP
Maven 2.0.10 and 2.1.0
Java  1.5.0_17 and 1.6

Came accross this when i tried to set a separate local repository per EXECUTOR_NUMBER in Hudson (${env.EXECUTOR_NUMBER}), when this didn't work i tried it with ${user.home} alone and this didn't work as well.

> I have the following in conf/settings.xml in my maven install tree.
>   <localRepository>${user.home}/.m2/btrepository</localRepository>
> The user.home does not expand. Using a ~ doesn't help. I still end up with a .m2 directory in the root.
