Well, we manage a live site so artifacts released a month ago are more often than not, useless cruft.
We don't have a snapshot repository (just yet) so that isn't a problem (just yet). But I don't want to go in with a sword and start chopping out bits when there is data about said bits everywhere (in the metadata files). It'd be great if there was a "mvn undeploy groupId:artifactId:version" type command. Or if the deploy or release plugins would be configurable to say, "purge stuf X days old" or something. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tamás Cservenák Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2008 6:23 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: deleting things out of a repository And not to mention the "recipe" that remote repo (even those "inhouse", locally managed ones [probably hosted by one of MRMs or even web server]) should only "advance forward" in time and _have_no_artifact_deleted_. Exception for those are SNAPSHOTs, as Wendy said. ~t~ On Sun, Mar 30, 2008 at 10:42 PM, Wendy Smoak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Sun, Mar 30, 2008 at 1:41 PM, EJ Ciramella <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > What's the best way to remove, say, 10 or so old builds out of the > > repository (a locally run/managed one)? > > > > is there a "mvn undeploy" command? > > Can you explain more about what you're looking for?
