Hi - I have a question about how mvn determines when to pull a snapshot dependency from the local repository vs. the remote repository. We have the following scenario:
CruiseControl publishes snapshot builds on each successful build. moduleA depends on moduleB and moduleC, all versions and dependencies are SNAPSHOT versions. If I install moduleC and then install moduleA (different mvn invocations), it appears that installing moduleA pulls the jar from the remote snapshot repository instead of using the local jar that I just installed even if the remote version is older. The behavior we expected to see is that moduleA is built with the latest version of moduleB & moduleC regardless of location (local repo or remote repo). Does mvn use the maven-metadata xml to determine where to get the latest version? How does it resolve duplicate sources? Hopefully that is clear enough... Thanks- Zak
