aggregate reports support

[davewichers]

Can the maven versions plugin be enhanced so users can generate aggregate reports for all the sub-modules in a multimodule project? Similar to: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/checkstyle-aggregate-mojo.html

This users wants it to, but no answer to his query: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49171182/maven-multi-module-project-versionsdependency-updates-report

If there is no way to easily generate a single aggregate report, can there be an option to at least interlink the reports, or generate a root .html report that links them all together?

I would aprecciate this feature as well.

Why was this auto closed? Seems like a useful feature.

I would also +1 for this request.

[davewichers]

It's been THREE years! Any chance this could get implemented?

[slawekjaranowski]

It is Open Source project everybody can implement new feature ... so you needn't wait you can simply do it for yourself and for other.

Good idea.

Question: should this also be supported for Display...Updates mojos? Strangely enough -- descending into the reactor tree is being done e.g. in the Set mojo which could result in inactive profiles being processed.

@slachiewicz @slawekjaranowski opinions?
