>
> The {{repository}} element in assembly descriptor is present since 1.0 of
> m-assembly-p, so it comes from Maven 2.0 times. The intent of this element is
> aligned with Maven 2.0 in a way, that Maven "local repository" and "remote
> repository" were same (plus some metadata needed for remote). This is NOT
> true since Maven 3.0, local repository is NOT transportable (this is since
> "enhanced" local repository implementation in Aether/Maven-Resolver). Simply
> put, "transporting" local repository from workstation to workstation is NOT
> JUST tarring up your local repository and un-tarring on target computer (this
> WAS like it with Maven2).
> As mentioned, this element documentation is vague and unclear what it does:
> creates "local" repository? Creates "remote" repository? Both? Also, since
> 3.0.0 of m-assembly-p it introduces bug and wrong behaviour: it (mis) uses
> Aether local repository to create something that may be assumed is a remote
> repository, and while doing that, introduces issues like MASSEMBLY-870 and
> MASSEMBLY-874 and alike (as in a moment local repo is redefined to that _tmp
> directory, Aether MUST re-download everything, despite all is present in your
> "real" local repository).
> We MAY introduce new element that buys out this deprecated element, like
> {{remoteRepository}} that would be clearly documented it creates Maven 3
> remote repository, while adding element like {{localRepository}} may be just
> overkill, as explained above, Maven 3 local repositories are NOT
> transportable.
