Why does the Asset.Builder overwrites properties?

[DominikPinsel]

The properties method of the Asset.Builder overwrites all previous set properties.

For example this asset is created without an id

Asset asset = Asset.Builder.newInstance()
                .id(id)
                .properties(properties)
                .build();

that's expected behaviour. if you set all the properties, they get overwritten.

I agree that the api of this builder can bring to unexpected results.
Should the properties method just add all the properties instead of overwrite the whole map?

[DominikPinsel]

Yea. I would assume that when I set the id in the builder, that the id in the builder is set. The only thing in a builder that should be overwrite this would be setting the id another time.
