Tamás Cservenák commented on MNG-4368: -------------------------------------- But that's the point, I checkout a source from some Anonymous guy's Git repository, so it's not mine source, and _before_ I am able to build it, _have to_ modify POMs and have local changes? Sounds awkward to me. Here, a typical example: look how many different Git reposes (that forked from each-other but is not interesting right now) with _different_ branches exists. http://github.com/jquery/jquery/network http://github.com/jquery/jquery/network/members > DefaultArtifactInstaller should only overwrite files if timestamp has changed > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4368 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4368 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Environment: Linux, JDK 1.5 > Reporter: Johannes Martin > Fix For: 2.2.2, 3.0-alpha-3 > > > install:install (from maven-install-plugin) by default uses > DefaultArtifactInstaller to install artifacts.
