Carlo de Wolf commented on MDEPLOY-77:
--------------------------------------

To clarify:

Suppose you have the following dependency chain: A -> B -> C

Now if you deploy a snapshot of C which passes all unit tests, but for some 
reason B can't be deployed because of unit test failures then A-SNAPSHOT 
becomes useless for other projects. Anybody using that one will end up with a 
'broken' C-SNAPSHOT.

Instead the dependency chain should be: A-1 -> B-1 -> C-1

Then it becomes: A-1 -> B-1 -> C-1, B-2 -> C-2 (where B-2 / SNAPSHOT fails to 
deploy)
Now A-1 / SNAPSHOT still forms a latest stable snapshot chain.
