Answer 1

so this is answered properly once and for all... update you pom build plugin "com.day.jcr.vault":

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId>
    <artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.24</version>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <configuration>
        <failOnError>true</failOnError>
        <username>${crx.username}</username>
        <password>${crx.password}</password>
        <properties>
            <acHandling>merge_preserve</acHandling>
        </properties>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

acHandling options: - ignore - overwrite - merge - merge_preserve - clear

Answer 2

Since the 1.0.2 version update of Adobe's content-package-maven-plugin, all content packaging functionality was removed and added to the org.apache.jackrabbit filevault-package-maven-plugin

The acHandling configuration will no longer work in the content-package-maven-plugin and instead needs to be added to the filevault-package-maven-plugin

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.jackrabbit</groupId>
    <artifactId>filevault-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.3</version>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <configuration>
        <embeddeds>
            <embedded>
                <groupId>com.company</groupId>
                <artifactId>company.core</artifactId>
                <target>/apps/company/install</target>
            </embedded>
        </embeddeds>

        <!-- NEW LOCATION -->
        <properties>
            <acHandling>merge_preserve</acHandling>
        </properties>
        <!-- /NEW LOCATION -->

    </configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
    <groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId>
    <artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2</version>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <configuration>
        <verbose>true</verbose>
        <failOnError>true</failOnError>
        <group>company.aem</group>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Answer 3

Small addendum:

The acHandling options are documented not in the maven-plugin but in the aem and jackrabbit packages documentation

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/administer/content/package-manager.html and https://jackrabbit.apache.org/filevault/apidocs/org/apache/jackrabbit/vault/fs/io/AccessControlHandling.html

the content-package-maven-plugin merely provides access to all package settings.

Answer 4

The package properties are configured in the configuration section of vault plugin in POM. To enable ACL import in the package add the below configurations to the POM

<configuration>
        <properties>
             <acHandling>Overwrite</acHandling>
        </properties>
</configuration>

The documentation for the vault plugin is at http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/core/how_to/how_to_use_the_vlttool/vlt-mavenplugin.html
