[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-13671) parent pom should use last-mod-timestamp from git for a plugin/feature instead of current timestamp when building

[Nick Boldt (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13671?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12757921#comment-12757921 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-13671:
------------------------------------

[~mmalina] well, the only alternative that comes to mind is to have publishing happen as a manual step performed by leads when they decide it's time for a new build to be pushed. 

So we could have:

Projects build against latest PUBLISHED integration build [in a new composite site]
Aggregates build against latest PUBLISHED integration build [in a new composite site]

Projects publish by default to staging/\{JOB_NAME\} as they do today
Projects MANUALLY copy bits from staging/\{JOB_NAME\} to integration/\{project name\} when they want the downstream consumers to get something new.

Of course the problem there is that it requires that people remember to do the publish.
