allow overwriting newer files with older files contained within fileset -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-478 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-478 Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2 Environment: mvn -version Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-06 13:16:01-0600) Java version: 1.6.0_17 Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.17/jre Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux" version: "2.6.29-bpo.2-amd64" arch: "amd64" Family: "unix" Reporter: deckrider I have a situation where I want to unwind a zip file, and then overlay a few files in it with my own. I've been using the maven dependency plugin to unwind this zip file and then maven assembly plugin to overwrite a few of the extracted files with my own (generally text based configuration that I keep under source code control). This seems to work until my files have an earlier modification time than the files that I want to overwrite, in which case my own files do NOT overwite the others (I want my files to ALWAYS replace those in the zip file). Thank in advance.
