Andrus Adamchik commented on MNG-3472:
--------------------------------------

I take issue with Brett's initial comment: "I think this is best handled by 
external tools."... On a local machine Maven is *the* tool to manage 
repository. At least the way things stand now... I guess since the issue got 
closed, the easiest solution in the spirit of open source would be to write 
some kind of a "maven-vacuum-repo-plugin"  (something I may end up doing, but 
no time guarantees)...

> configuration possibilities to limit size of local repository

> it would be great to make repository-size configurable, for instance by 
> setting the maximum number of downloads of a snapshot-version to be kept. 
> thus the explosion of local repository size can be reduced.
> especially when you are working with many in-house multi-module projects 
> which are marked as snapshots before released , can increase repository size 
> significantly.
