What I would do is to conditionally execute the publish with an unless="nopublish_because_uptodate" in your ant script.
I guess you could set 'nopublish_because_uptodate' by comparing the jar of the repository with the one you just build. Or it maybe just using an 'uptodate' before you compile might be enough if you still want to republish after a local clean, but not when you rebuild consecutively.
