Description

We want to be able to bootstrap a collection of directories, where the multiproject pom is located within one of those directories. Adding a configuration property for running the bootstrap goals from a subdirectory of the checkout directory would make this possible.

Why won't fix? Is bootstrapping of a collection of directories not supported on purpose? Why would allowing this improvement be a bad thing?

The command may work but relies on implementation details not documented or guaranteed. If this sort of thing should be supported (and I believe it should) then it should be obvious and not a hack.
