NAME
       pom_xpath_set - set contents of XML node from XML file

SYNOPSIS
       %pom_xpath_set XPath new-contents [XML-file-location]

DESCRIPTION
       This macro patches specified POM file replacing contents of all XML
       nodes described by the XPath expression with given new text content.
       This works on both elements and attributes.

       XPath is an expression describing a set of XML nodes to be removed from
       the POM file. It must be a properly formated XPath 1.0 expression, as
       described in http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/.

       Maven POM files use specific XML namespace
       http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 as default. This namespace needs to
       be explicitly specified in XPath expressions by prefixing all node
       names with pom (i.e. pom:modelVersion).

       Many other XML formats also use namespaces which you have to explicitly
       specify. This script will use the namespace prefix names from the xmlns
       declarations in the document’s root element. So if the document begins
       with <root xmlns:my="myurl.com"> you would select the root node with
       XPath expression /my:root. If the document specifies a default
       namespace (eg xmlns="myurl.com") use the prefix named default to acces
       elements in that namespace.

       XML location can be either a full path to the XML, or a path to the
       directory containing pom.xml or ivy.xml. If XML location is not given
       then pom.xml or ivy.xml from current working directory is used. When
       both pom.xml and ivy.xml are present, pom.xml is processed. You can
       specify more file locations.
