DESCRIPTION

       Transform the POM using the transformation rules.

       Where

	      [pom] is the location of the POM file to transform.

	      Default to pom.xml

	      [backup] is the backup file for the pom.

	      Default to pom.xml.save

OPTIONS

       -h --help: show this text

       -V --version: show the version

       -p<package> --package=<package>: name of the Debian package which

	      will contain this POM file

       -o --no-parent: don't inherit from a parent POM

       -k --keep-pom-version: keep the original version of the POM but

	      convert  all  other  versions  in  dependencies  and plugins.  If there is a parent POM, keeps its version except when the parent is
	      already registered in the Maven repository

       -e<version>, --set-version=<version>: set the version for the POM,

	      do not use the version declared in the POM file.

       -r<rules> --rules=<rules>: path to the file containing the

	      rules to apply when cleaning the POM.  Optional, the default location is debian/maven.rules

       -R<rule>, --extra-rule=<rule>: extra rule to apply when cleaning the POM

	      May occur multiple times, instead of or in addition to -r

       -u<rules> --published-rules=<rules>: path to the file containing the

	      extra rules to publish in the property debian.mavenRules in the cleaned POM.  Optional, the default  location  is  debian/maven.pub-
	      lishedRules

       -U<rule>, --extra-published-rule=<rule>: extra rule to publish

	      May occur multiple times, instead of or in addition to -u

       -i<rules> --ignore-rules=<rules>: path to the file containing the

	      rules used to remove certain dependencies from the cleaned POM Optional, the default location is debian/maven.ignoreRules

       -I<rule>, --extra-ignore-rule=<rule>: extra rule used to remove dependencies

	      from the transformed POM May occur multiple times, instead of or in addition to -i

       -c<rules> --clean-ignore-rules=<rules>: path to the file containing the

	      rules  use to remove certain dependencies from the cleaned POM, in addition to the ignore rules specified previously. This is useful
	      in situations such as when the Maven clean target requires more dependencies or plugins to ignore than the build target.	All  rules
	      defined  in  clean-ignore-rules  will  be  added	to  the  existing  rules  in  ignore-rules.   Optional,  the  default  location is
	      debian/maven.cleanIgnoreRules

       -s --no-rules: don't apply any rules for converting versions,

	      do not even convert versions to the default 'debian' version

       --no-publish-used-rule: don't publish the rule used to transform

	      a POM's own attributes in debian.mavenRules

       -d --debian-build: transform during a Debian build, which means that

	      some POM elements will be removed

       -b --build-no-docs: if the build doesn't need to build documentation, use this

	      option to remove some POM elements (in particular plugins) which are useless here and may require extra dependencies  and  make  the
	      packaging harder.

       -m<repo root>--maven-repo=<repo root>: location of the Maven repository,

	      used to force the versions of the Maven plugins used in the current POM file with the versions found in the repository

       -v --verbose: show more information while running

       -n --no-act: don't actually do anything, just print the results
