Ok cool ! Thanks a lot I tried copying a part of a repository and pointed to it with an sftp url and it works perfectly.
Here below is what it looks like : <project...> <repositories> <repository> <id>sftp</id> <url>sftp://maven.server.com/path/to/repository/</url> </repository> </repositories> ... <build> <extensions> <extension> <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId> <artifactId>wagon-ssh</artifactId> <version>2.6</version> </extension> </extensions> </build> </project> Maven is able to download from any url type then... great ! As you suggest it would be great to have a lot of wagon : bittorrent, nfs, cifs, ... By the way it was just by curiosity I'll probably end up with an http server somehow :) 2014-07-09 13:03 GMT+02:00 Mark Derricutt <m...@talios.com>: > I wonder if anyones considered doing a bit-torrent based repository. > > Each GAV entry could be its own entry in a tracker. *ponders* > > On 9 Jul 2014, at 19:48, Stephen Connolly wrote: > > wagon is the extension point to implement additional protocols.
