Netbeans is pretty smart when it comes to Maven projects. Just modifying
the source of the dependent library and then re-running the application
that uses that library is usually enough for it to just-work. For day to
day dev that's what I do because it's very fast.
However if for some reason you *want* to ensure you're using the deployed
artifact for your library found in your artifact repository then what I do
is re-run my application with the "Update Snapshots" option in Netbeans and
in the console you'll see it go out and download the artifact overwriting
the local one.
