Konrad Windszus updated MRESOLVER-633:
--------------------------------------
Description:
A dedicated section in https://maven.apache.org/resolver/local-repository.html
about local caching of unresolvable artifacts would be beneficial.
IIUC it respects the update policy and all files not found in any remote repo
are stored as 0 byte artifacts in the local repo.
It is unclear to me how to deal with edge cases like adding a new repo which
provides that previously unresolvable release artifact? What do I need to do
from a consumer perspective to resolve that, if the 0 byte artifact is already
cached in the local repo...
Other edge cases include a repository which is only available via a VPN
connection, which is not always established, so the remote repo may not be
available at all times and the availability may change without any changes on
remote repositories on Maven side ({{settings.xml}} or some {{pom.xml}})
