Until now we used to process multibranch maven projects with the Multi-Branch Project Plugin which under the hood uses the maven-project-plugin for maven builds.

This maven-project-plugin has this great feature for doing incremental builds - meaning just rebuild the maven modules which have changed in the SCM since the last build. We used this feature heavily beacause we have many multimodule maven projects (also multi levels) and this feature could decrease build times fundamentally.

Now the Multi-Branch Project Plugin is deprecated and we are advised to move to the Pipeline-Multibranch Plugin. This plugin uses the pipeline-maven-plugin under the hood for maven builds. In this plugin we are missing an incremental build mechanism. Build times would increase dramatically.

Is there any hope to get this feaure also into the pipeline-maven-plugin?

Thanks and best Regards
