Barrie Treloar commented on MNG-2705:
-------------------------------------
I'm being lazy and lowering the barrier for people to submit bugs.
For example, a common problem I had while trying to fix problems:
I am working on plugin A which has more than one other snapshot dependency B,
C, D, etc.
I only want to checkout plugin A since I am pretty sure the bug is there.
I do not want to have to chase the dragons tail and check out all snapshot
dependencies on the chance that the problem is in one of those.
Now when I am debugging plugin A because the snapshot dependencies have been
downloaded from the snapshot repository and because the source jar is not
available I can not step the debugger into these dependencies - since all I get
is the bytecodes.
If I find that the problem is in a dependent plugin, only then do I want to
checkout from svn and run mvn install so I can fix it.
As has been noted I can checkout the source for these myself and install them
locally, but this is a waste of time and effort for all the plugins that work
as expected.

> When using IDE like eclipse, it would be great to have dependecies sources
> (optionnaly) added to repository.
> This way eclipse plugin (and others) could generate a .classpath file that
