---------------------------------------------------------------------
Seems that the meta information from which remote repository the artifact was
tried to be retrieved is captured in the meta data file
{{<artifactName>.lastUpdated}}, however it is not clear how different errors
are distinguished like not found, unauthorized, read/connect timeout, ... and
how those are segregated into temporary vs. persistent error conditions.

> Clarify caching of 404 responses on artifact resolving in local repository

> Key: MRESOLVER-633
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-633
> Project: Maven Resolver
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Resolver
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> 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}})
