Can anyone comment on the purpose [and status] of the 'stage' plugin? Apart from the statement
Its main use is for copying artifacts from a staging repository to the real repository. at http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-stage-plugin/, there isn't much explanation. I don't find many references to it in posts, nor does it seem to be addressed by the upcoming "Maven: A Definitive Guide" and older "Better Builds with Maven" texts. Specifically, what is a 'staging repository' [vs. a 'real repository']? Would the plugin be used to move all artifacts from one repo to another, or does it move only specific artifacts/versions? >From content at http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-stage-plugin/usage.html, the answer would appear to be the former ... but I don't see much utility in that use case. What am I missing? Thanks. Brad --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
