Brett Porter commented on MDEP-141:
-----------------------------------
is that really the role of the dependency plugin?
btw, to alleviate this in the future I've proposed this feature:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Local+repository+separation
> there should be a way to purge all snapshots

> Key: MDEP-141
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MDEP-141
> Project: Maven 2.x Dependency Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: purge-local-repository
> Reporter: Dan Fabulich
> Assignee: Brian Fox
>
> Occasionally we find that we need to clear out our local repository; seems
> like nobody ever knows why, but in chatting with people I understand that
> it's not unheard of. I presume that the evil here is in SNAPSHOT versions
> present on some people's machines and not others.
> It would be nice if there were some way to use purge-local-repository to
> knock out all SNAPSHOT versions for everything, rather than having to
> re-download released artifacts as well as SNAPSHOTs.
