I'm sure a repo manager can do fancy things with multiple repositories for downloading, and I am already working on getting Nexus set up today. But I don't see how a repo manager will solve my problem with deployment. You can't deploy with the HTTP protocol, can you? It has to be something like scp://, ftp://, or file://. Are there repo manageres that interject somehow in the deployment phase. Since the <distributionManagement> can only specify two kinds of repositories, snapshot and normal (release), I am thinking that I need to decide that (from a deployment perspective at least) there are only two repositories, so I should probably combine my idea of a "staging" repository with the snapshot repository. But I'll still need to copy between repositories (copy a non-snapshot artifact from the snapshot repository to the release repository), so if stage:copy is not the best way to do this, I'm hoping to find that this is something Nexus or another repo manager can do easily.
