Dennis Lundberg updated MINSTALL-25:
------------------------------------

    Component/s: install:install-file

> Allow URLs to be used for installing a file
> -------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: MINSTALL-25
>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-25
>             Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: install:install-file
>            Reporter: Richard S. Hall
>
> Looking at the source code, it definitely does not appear possible to install 
> a file from a URL using install:install-file.
> To me, this seems like it would be a useful feature and could be handled 
> uniformly if file: URLs were supported.
> As it stands right now, if I want to install something into my local repo, I 
> need to download it and save it somewhere on my computer, then I need to 
> remember where I saved it and type that path into a maven command to make 
> another copy in my local repository.
> It seems like it would be much more straightforward to just give the URL I 
> want to be downloaded and installed.
