might end up trying to do it this way temporarily, if that's what it takes
to get some work done. The main problem with it is that because it's not
location-dependent, it's not set-and-forget, which means it's not
foolproof, which means that ML is guaranteed to cock it up within the
first 24 hours (either through confusion or sheer forgetfulness)
true, but that's how it is. Anyway I'm sure you can batch-script your way
around this.
:-/ It's also kind of a heavy-handed kluge that goes against the spirit
of Maven (IMHO alternative local repo locations should only be used for
testing purposes), but that's a secondary issue.
well that's what you were describing no? Keeping trunk for testing purposes
and a local build to tinker with without impacting the other?
Anyway [ahem]... Maven may not be perfect yet, but like Eric Raymond said,
"all bugs are shallow given enough eyeballs", and there are a lot of
eyeballs on Maven right now, so I think it will get better.
eventually yes. But for such a high profile project it surprises me that
their last release is dated almost a year now.
You should take into account that Maven is build upon plugins which it
can update by itself (without the need of a new official Maven release).
So a release of Maven itself is most probably just it's core
(admittedly, I dunno exactly what all is in the Maven core ;-)
