------------------------------------
Summary: Maven Metadata corruption if directory role overlaps
Key: MNG-8106
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8106
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Artifacts and Repositories
Affects Versions: 3.9.6, 3.9.5, 3.9.4, 3.9.3, 3.9.2, 3.9.1, 3.9.0
Reporter: Tamas Cservenak
Fix For: 3.9.7
In case certain directory role is manifold (which IS against best practices),
data loss occurs. Metadata will contain this or that, but not both data.
Example: consider project producing these artifacts
* org.foo:bar:1.0
* org.foo.bar:baz:1.0
In this case, the local (and remote) repository path {{org/foo/bar}} that is a
directory, will overlap in a way, it is G level for one artifact, and A level
for another. Now, if org.foo.bar:baz is a Maven Plugin, the G level should
contain plugin related (G level) metadata. At the same time, due org.foo:bar
this directory should contain A level metadata (list of versions).
