# Maven settings 1.2.0

Source: https://xmlvalid.com/schemas/maven-settings-1.2.0

> The Maven settings.xml in ~/.m2 or on a CI runner: servers, mirrors, proxies and profiles.

A wrong element in settings.xml makes Maven ignore a mirror or credentials, which shows up later as a failing download. The schema catches it first.
