------------------------------------
Summary: Carify remote repository resolution order
Key: MNG-6994
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6994
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation: General
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
It is possible to declare remote repositories in {{settings.xml}} and
{{pom.xml}}. While for the {{settings.xml}} it has to be given in a profile,
for {{pom.xml}} it can be given only in the top-level {{repositories}} element.
The order in which an artifact is tried to be resolved from the different
remote repo is sometimes crucial to know (e.g. to speed up build times by first
checking against remote repos having most of the artifacts like Maven Central)
I would assume the order is
1. First all repositories from pom.xml in declaration order
2. Then the repositories from settings.xml in declaration order (independent of
repository or profile id).
It would be nice to document this in
https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-repositories.html
