Default remote repository id not safe
-------------------------------------
Key: MANTTASKS-142
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-142
Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks
Issue Type: Bug
Components: dependencies task
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
Priority: Minor
The default id for a remote repository is just the repo URL. However, a URL
typically contains all kind of characters that are not safe for usage in local
file paths. E.g. the colon (:) from the URL scheme will just blow up on
Windows. The slashes from the URL also cause troubles for a path that is meant
to be a simple file name instead of a directory spec.
Better choices for the default repo id could be the host name only or just some
hex-encoded MD5-digest of the URL.
