Robert Scholte commented on ARCHETYPE-521:
------------------------------------------
bq. Question: How can I specify specific repository for generating project
(without editing settings.xml file)?
Allowing to set a URL via commandline is considered to be a security leak, so
specifying the repository (id: archetype) in the {{settings.xml}} is the right
way.

> I wanted to create new project using mvn archetype:generate command.
> Desired archetype was absent in the central repo, so I tried to use
> -DarchetypeRepository=repo.url param. But this param is out of date in 3.0.0
> version of plugin.
> So I needed to use mvn
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.4:generate command.

> (-DarchetypeCatalog=repo.url doesn't work too)
