commit 7bfb98bc12e8ff43d9d58ce4bb8bea8f8f33216e
Author: Richard Zowalla <r...@apache.org>
AuthorDate: Sun Sep 20 20:50:53 2026 +0200

    TOMEE-4438 restrict the Apache snapshot repository to snapshots
    
    Adds <releases><enabled>false</enabled></releases> to the 158 Apache 
snapshot
    repository and pluginRepository declarations in the examples and the 
archetype.
    Matches on the host, so the five older repository.apache.org/snapshots URLs 
are
    covered too. Additive only; repositories pointing elsewhere are untouched.
