@ilatypov thanks for creating all of these! Much appreciated. As mentioned by @ekerwin on your PR, we are going to incorporate your changes as soon as we can. We want to start versioning the shell script though because with over 100+ users, the fear of destabilizing anyone is mounting. Your changes will go into either the hub-detect.sh or hub_detect_5.x.sh.

Is there any work-around for this?

The documentation at https://blackducksoftware.github.io/synopsys-detect/synopsys-detect-5.6.0-help.html states you could pass --detect.maven.build.command='--settings ${HOME}/maven_dev_settings.xml --define reason=other' but this fails as only --settings gets passed into the script.

I did not see an open issue in the current repository, so opening one there (along with referring to the PR in this issue)

https://github.com/ilatypov/hub-detect/commit/1347ec77283376b6e8c2bbe7ae6d29decb8390ca

would be awesome.

As a work-around we double-protect spaces with a back-slash (which itself needs duplication to avoid its context switching action).

In general, I see an issue bot deployed by Synopsys that aggressively closes "stale" issues in the current project. This makes customers search for substitute solutions.
