Jason van Zyl updated MNG-2945:
-------------------------------
Patch Submitted: (was: [Yes])
> plugin to facilitate downloads of snapshot plugins and dependencies for each
> insertion into internal repository.
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-2945
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2945
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Plugin Requests
> Reporter: Brian Fox
> Priority: Minor
>
> Discussed here.
> http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Remove-auto-resolution-of-plugin-versions-from-Maven-2.1-p9965795s177.html
> >
> > Here's how I deal with instances where I need a snapshot plugin in my
> > corp build:
> > 1. Checkout the code for the snapshot.
> > 2. Build it, changing the version to something like
> > 2.0-[companyname]-svnrev 3. If I have to patch the source at all, I
> > take the whole thing and put it in my svn. If not, then the svnrev in
> > the release points me back to where I got it in case I need it later.
> > 4. Deploy it to my repos.
> > 5. Use this now "internally released" version in my builds.
> >
> I've done this, and also with smaller external snapshots I've downloaded them
> and just adjusted the metadata (and filename) before deploying to my local
> repos.
> What would be really, really, really useful would be a plugin that you could
> call that would download a snapshot of a project and its (transient,
> snapshot) dependencies, re-label it as a fixed internal version. There's
> occasions where you just can't wait for an external project to release (and
> of course this problem is recursive!), and rebuilding everything yourself is
> a bit drag on the person doing a release.
> something like
> mvn artifact:freeze-snapshot org.apache.myfaces myfaces-all 1.1.6-SNAPSHOT
> 1.1.6-mycorp
