Hey, it depends on the kind of snapshot versions you are using - unique
(contains timestamp and build number) or non-unique.

If you are using non-unique snapshots, then it is only possible if both
repositories holding the snapshot are proxies (caches). This is because
Artifactory prefers snapshot artifacts that is has on it's local
repositories
and once one is found, search on remote repositories is not performed.

For unique snapshots, the local and proxy repositories are most likely to
contain snapshots with different timestamps. So if you request a specific
snapshot it will take it from the (only) repository it exists (local or
remote).
But, to determine the latest unique version, maven requests a file called
maven-metadata.xml which holds this information. When Artifactory
receives request for maven metadata, it will merge the maven metadata
from all the repositories where it exists, preferring the newest metadata.
So, for unique snapshots, the merged metadata should point to the latest
unique timestamp and build number.
