+ <question>I have a jar that I want to put into my local repository. How
can I copy it in?</question>
+ <answer>
+ <p>
+ If you understand the layout of the maven repository, you can copy
the jar directly into where it
+ is meant to go. Maven will find this file next time it is run.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ If you are not confident about the layout of the maven repository,
then you can
+ adapt the following command to load in your jar file, all on one
line.
+ </p>
+
+ <source><![CDATA[
+m2 install:install-file
+ -Dfile=<path-to-file>
+ -DgroupId=<group-id>
+ -DartifactId=<artifact-id>
+ -Dversion=<version>
+ -Dpackaging=<packaging>
+
+Where: <path-to-file> the path to the file to load
+ <group-id> the group that the file should be registered under
+ <artifact-id> the artifact name for the file
+ <version> the version of the file
+ <packaging> the packaging of the file e.g. jar
+ ]]></source>
+
+ <p>
+ This should load in the file into the maven repository, renaming it
as needed.
