Hi, At our project we recently had an issue where we accidentally included outdated artifacts (which were still available on snapshot repositories). To detect those issues in the future by our integration tests, I want to instruct maven not to download snapshot updates, using the -nsu command line argument.
However, doing mvn clean install -nsu -DskipTests -Dmaven.repo.local=/tmp/test-mvn will still lead to: [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Building flink-language-binding-generic 0.9-SNAPSHOT [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Downloading: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xmlDownloaded: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xml (2 KB at 0.8 KB/sec)Downloading: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/flink-compiler-0.9-20150313.122611-190.pomDownloaded: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/flink-compiler-0.9-20150313.122611-190.pom (4 KB at 5.7 KB/sec)Downloading: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/flink-compiler-0.9-20150313.122611-190.jarDownloaded: http://repository.apache.org/snapshots/org/apache/flink/flink-compiler/0.9-SNAPSHOT/flink-compiler-0.9-20150313.122611-190.jar (2660 KB at 379.7 KB/sec) I've added the steps to reproduce here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5064?focusedCommentId=14551952&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14551952 I would like to know whether I misunderstood the feature or if this is a bug.
