Greetings,
I support a team of Java professionals working in a closed area.
Up until a few months ago I had supplied them with a frequently updated
distribution of Maven2 artifacts.
I did this while connected to the internet using rsync of Maven2 to a hard
drive that contained my previously obtained rsync'd repository.
This ensured that only updates of Maven2 be retrieved since the last time the
repository had updated.
Having a complete updated Maven2 repository is a requirement of our team of
professionals working in a closed area.
However since Maven2 no longer supports rsync, I need to find another way to
satisfy this requirement.
I know that repository management tools exist.
In fact we are using Apache Archiva in an open area for another team of Java
developers.
New versions of Jars are added to POM files and Archiva goes out and downloads
the specific JAR an its dependencies.
Since we work in a closed area, is there a repository management tool capable
of automatically updating my local Maven2 repository without looking in a
modified POM?
We would like the management tool to go out every 6 to 8 weeks ensuring Maven2
updates to be minimum.
Thank you,
David
