I use M2e + Eclipse + Maven and I would like to know what the difference is between:
- running “mvn clean” in a terminal and
- running “clean project” from Eclipse?
Can anyone please advise?

From some quick tests, it seems that Eclipse’s
clean projectis only clearing out the folders that are set as output folder in the project’s preferences, whereas maven’scleanis deleting the /target folder completely.
