Devin Reid commented on MDEP-177:
---------------------------------

A feature like this would be extremely useful for projects that need to be 
rebuilt offsite from normal development on secure networks.

> add target option to go-offline goal

> Say I want to make it so that maven can work completely offline, just from

> the only way to do this, as far as I know, is to rename your repository dir, 
> run the go-offline goal, and then copy all contents of the repo into your 
> project, add the repo location to you project pom and commit. The big problem 
> with this of course is that maven has to go fetch everything from the net, 
> and that its a pain to do more than once (i.e. when plugin versions change, 
> as copy-dependencies already outputs to target/dependencies)
> What would be much nicer, and easier to maintain, would be if there was a 
> target option for go-offline. That way, i could set the 'target' to 
> /mavenProjectRepo and *everything* needed to run maven on the project would 
> be installed into that dir, from the local maven repo, or downloaded if 
> required.
> Hope I was clear, let me know if you want clarification.
