This is strictly the model for Maven Repository Metadata, so really just
plain objects.
- Maven Repository Metadata is available in directories representing:
-
- [[1]] an un-versioned artifact: it gives informations about available
versions of the artifact,
+ The metadata file name is:
- [[2]] a snapshot artifact: it gives precise information on the snapshot,
+ * <<<maven-metadata.xml>>> in a remote repository,
- [[3]] a group containing Maven plugins artifacts: it gives informations on
plugins available in this group.
+ * <<<maven-metadata-\<repo-id>.xml>>> in a local repository, for metadata
from a repository with <<<repo-id>>> identifier.

- The metadata file name is:
+ Depending on what the directory represents ("groupId", "groupId/artifactId"
or "groupId/artifactId/version"),
+ the Maven Repository Metadata file contains 3 different sets of metadata:
- * <<<maven-metadata.xml>>> in a remote repository,
+ [[1]] in a "groupId" directory: a "groupId" directory may contain Maven
plugins artifacts, which are described in metadata's <<<plugins>>> element,
- * <<<maven-metadata-\<repo-id>.xml>>> in a local repository, for metadata
from a repository with <<<repo-id>>> identifier.
+ [[2]] in a "groupId/artifactId" directory: metadata describes <<<groupId>>>,
<<<artifactId>>> and <<<versioning>>> element that
+ gives data about available versions (<<<latest>>>, <<<release>>>,
<<<versions>>> list and <<<lastUpdated>>>),
+
+ [[3]] in a "groupId/artifactId/version" snapshot artifact directory: metadata
describes <<<groupId>>>, <<<artifactId>>>, <<<version>>> (base version, ie
ending in <<<-SNAPSHOT>>>) and
