Hi
My task is to fetch the latest snapshot version of a maven artifact. How
can I do this without having to parse the maven-metadata.xml and
figuring out what the latest timestamp is?
We used to deploy snapshot artifacts with a unique identifier, so the
artifacts URL was fix and I could fetch the snapshot with a simple HTTP
GET command: group/artifact/1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/artifact-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar.
An easy and simple solution: I liked this!
However this solution does not work anymore in maven 3 (we're using
tycho-distribution-3065 to deploy artifacts). As I've understood the
developers correctly, the uniqueVersion parameter is/will be deprecated:

Does Nexus provide a fix URL for an artifacts' latest snapshot version?
Is there a simple mvn command to fetch the latest snapshot version
(without having to define a pom.xml and use dependency:copy hacks)?
Does Ivy support the maven repository layout/logic?
Thanks for your help,
