Hi Charles,
With repository reference filtering, poms are filtered only when requested
via a virtual repo that has this feature turned on (and the original
deployed pom on the local repository is never modified). It helps in
preventing third-party dependencies from adding foreign resolution
repositories to the build, thus circumventing your organizational repo.
Nevertheless, this behavior can be turned off at will.
Keeping repositories in poms is possible and straightforward, but has some
drawbacks:
- Third party users of the pom will inherit the repositories defined (may
not be relevant in your case)
- Putting the repository configuration in the pom that is itself resolved
from that repository creates a chicken & egg problem. Also, when the pom is
cached in users local repository the process of making
any repository configuration changes is more complicated and error
prone, compared to changing a settings configuration file (need to reinstall
the parent pom separately on all user machines).
You may wish to look into the new settings provisioning feature of
Artifactory Pro, where you can just customize your settings with dynamic
logic (such as injecting the current user/pass), and then provision it to
users via a downloadbale URL resource (
http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Filtered+Resources#FilteredResources-ProvisioningBuildToolSettings
).
