Please do file a JIRA and reply back with the number. I'll see about implementing a plugin to help with this issue, but no guarantees. ;-) Wayne On 3/19/08, aldana <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > yes, we got a corporate repository with archvia, which cashes dependencies, > so it is not such a pain as waiting very long time when deleting > .m2/repository without having a repository proxy. > > never the less i think that all these cleanup-scripts hanging around (cron > or similar) are just as always a workaround which do not solve the source of > the problem. > me, at least as a user would like to have solved this memory-size problem > (currently 2GB sized repository is growing larger and larger just because of > snapshots) by maven2 itself. > > i think i will go to open a jira issue for that, so setting the number of > snapshots kept in local repository can be configured. > > > Wayne Fay wrote: > > > > This is not currently configurable.

Re: limit size of local repository, limit number of snapshots
yes, we got a corporate repository with archvia, which cashes dependencies, so it is not such a pain as waiting very long time when deleting .m2/repository without having a repository proxy. never the less i think that all these cleanup-scripts hanging around (cron or similar) are just as always a workaround which do not solve the source of the problem. me, at least as a user would like to have solved this memory-size problem (currently 2GB sized repository is growing larger and larger just because of snapshots) by maven2 itself. i think i will go to open a jira issue for that, so setting the number of snapshots kept in local repository can be configured.

Re: limit size of local repository, limit number of snapshots
This is not currently configurable. Most people have a corporate repository where they download their artifacts from, and so simply deleting ~/.m2 is less painful than if you are just downloading direct from the Internet. I know people have discussed scripts to clear out their repo (eg find latest snapshot and delete the rest) on this list but I don't have a link to Nabble for one of them. If you search, you can probably find one or more of them. But they may not work on your platform (eg script is bash or korn and you're on Windows).

limit size of local repository, limit number of snapshots
hi, is it possible to limit the size of local repository? especially keeping all snapshots of a version in my view often is not neccessary. so a setting, where the maximum number of snapshots can be set (others would then be discarded) would be nice. currently we sometimes get very annoying problems that roaming-win xp profiles get crashed because maven local repository takes too much space. the workaround to regularly delete local repository does not seem a good solution to me do others face similar problems? - manuel aldana aldana((at))gmx.de homepage: http://www.aldana-online.de -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/limit-size-of-local-repository%2C-limit-number-of-snapshots-tp16147475s177p16147475.html Sent from the Maven - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
