resolve/ignore extension provided properties

[delanym]

I use this Maven extension to set a property with the value of the git worktree directory, among others.
I also leave the a property <git.dir.worktree>${git.dir.worktree}</git.dir.worktree> in the top-level pom to fail the build if for some reason the extension doesn't run. But this completely breaks IDEA's ability to resolve packages.

What's the best approach here?

@krasa i don't have the option of using a plugin over of an exception. I'm basically asking when will IDEA support this?

[krasa]

I am not an IDEA developer :-)

I would suggest not using extensions that require IDE support.

The extension doesn't require IDE support - the IDE requires support for the extension, but I see your point about this being a mere plugin.

Funny, I had this problem 10 years ago too https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-75122
(Although it is a little different one.)

I need the extension to set git properties for the build as it does this once for the whole build. If I do that with a git-*-plugin it will query git 500x. Of course I could make that info inheritable, but that rules out using -pl type builds
