error on goal properties:write-project-properties when properties file exists and is read-only

[cristyrye]

Is there a flag to allow writing the properties file if there already is a properties file and it is read only?
I am getting the following error:
[INFO] --- properties-maven-plugin:1.0.0:write-project-properties (default) @ template_basic_application ---

There is not such flag. If you want override files in your workspace you should allow it and change mode of file.
