Hello James It really does try twice. The first time it tries with no credentials supplied. This came to our attention when we upgraded from maven-2.0.9 to maven-3.0.5.
We found out at that time that it had to do with being compliant to some web specification and there was no way to force it to use credentials on the first attempt. The delay is a mere fraction of a second for most files. On larger files it can be slightly irritating. We now avoid deploying ear files altogether by using the skip argument of the deploy plugin.
