[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-1925) Unclear error message about conflict

[Luca Bueti (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1925?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13304884#comment-13304884 ] 

Luca Bueti commented on WFLY-1925:
----------------------------------

After unsuccessfully trying to preserve module conflicts for the last 4 hours, I found an article on JBoss EAP documentation that explains that override and preserve commands work only for misc files. In my humble opinion, the error message
Use the --override-all, --override=[] or --preserve=[] arguments in order to resolve the conflict.
could be improved to add this useful information (which I couldn't find in wildfly Admin Docs).

> That message doesn't say much. It should say something like 'the hash of xxx has changed, you have probably applied manual changes to xxx. Use --override or --preserve arguments to specify how the conflicts should be dealt with.'
