This contradicts the FAQ entry at > https://maven.apache.org/archetype/maven-archetype-plugin/faq.html#authentication > which states that the id is supposed to be {{<archetypeArtifactId>-repo}} > which would require one server section per archetype in a repo requiring > authentication. > Also it is unclear which value {{archetypeArtifact}} should be set to to > consider the catalog from a specific remote repository as > bq. {{remote}} is the shortcut for Maven Central repository or its mirror. > But in case there is no mirror for Maven Central but rather a dedicated > catalog of custom archetypes maintained in a a custom repo the value is > unclear. > Also adding a repository with id {{archetype}} to settings would not only > affect m-archetype-p but every resolution with Maven. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
