Khai Do commented on MDEP-250:
------------------------------
Yes. skip flag would be nice to have for unpack and copy.
Here is a use case:
We have a few maven projects that are only dedicated to testing or setting up
test environments. These projects use the dependency plugin to get large
resources from various repositories for testing. The copy and unpack are a bit
time consuming so it would be nice to skip if we build without tests (i.e.
-Dmaven.test.skip=true).

> Components: unpack
> Affects Versions: 2.1

> We would like to have a skip paramater for dependency:unpack. This would
> cause the unpack to be skipped if true. We are currently working around the
> lack of this with profiles.
> The jetspeed plugin has a skip option that we have found some uses for, but
> jetspeed is not as robust as the dependency plugin (specifically with
> multi-module builds). We would prefer to use the core modules anyway.
