Yes, the default cache is what I am stumbling over. I thought I took

files referenced.
Ok - I think that Sam's comments may be the relevant ones here. I've
never bothered to move my cache from the default location. Your
original question was about the 'local' repository - presumably this is
now where you wanted it to be?
As a further comment to your point above the general problem with any
cache is knowing when to flush it! It may be that Sam's comments would
move the cache location properly. However, I have also found it
necessary to add a task to my ant build which allows me to flush the
cache and rebuild everything, which is often necessary after
modifications to the build structure or extensive changes to the build
files.
I seem to remember other discussions on this list about caching which it
might be good to look at.

If someone said, though shalt always use "local", then I'd be happy to
tweak it so it exists in my build area rather than ${user.home}. But it
was my expectation that we could define an entirely different set of
repositories, caches, and resolvers and would never need to use "local",
and nor would any artifacts be written to a location other than in my
custom definitions.
So how do I disable all use of the "local" by IVY?
Here are my convoluted definitions and Ant use:

Subject: Re: Are IVY Default Repositories Mandatory?
Hi Robert
I don' think that they are mandatory - its just that the recommended 3
repository approach is what is pre-defined in the ivy settings in the
ivy jar.
I found the documentation quite confusing over this, and had to
experiment a lot, but I have separate repositories defined outside of
${user.home}/.ivy2
Which repository you publish to or resolve from is entirely up to you.
I've a set of repositories that I use for testing the dependency
management and another one that I use for team work, and I select the
set of repositories by having a master property which chooses which one
to use.
Also, the default Ivy cache is in ${user.home}/.ivy2 - maybe that's what
you are seeing (just a guess)

Good morning,
The documentation states:
"This default settings mainly consist of 3 kind of repositories...
First, several repositories uses the same root in your filesystem.
Referenced as ${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}, this is by default the
directory .ivy2 in your user home."
Is this to imply that the local, shared, and public repositories are
mandatory?
From my use it seems that local is mandatory since though I set up my
own custom resolvers, caches, and repositories, I still get stuff in
${user.home}.
