Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVY-1431:
--------------------------------------
The patch looks really great. I see the doc has been updated which is really
nice.
I would just need some little time to test it a little bit.
There maybe just a little hitch. In the test file
{{test/repositories/ivysettings.xml}} I see an url concatenation:
file:${ivy.settings.dir}/m2. From experience, this doesn't work on Windows, and
there is no proper way make an url concatenation work on every platform. But I
could be wrong. And it's not a blocker for me for the patch to be integrated.
> Also copy original metadata artifact (e.g. POM) on ivy:install

> Suppose you provide some module, which you are developing with Ivy and that
> has external dependencies (or even worse: non publically available
> dependencies). Then you might want to publish the module plus all
> dependencies to a filesystem repository, which then can be redistributed and
> which is usable for offline builds.
> So far, no problem. But if you do not want to or even can't force your
> consumers to use Ivy, then while you can create this "offline repository" in
> Maven layout, it still is not usable with Maven because the POMs of all your
> dependencies are missing. While Ivy remembers them (*.orig Files), they are
> not used.
> The attached patch will copy the cached original metadata in the install
> operation if it's type ends in ".original". Also, the restoring of the
> OriginArtifact from the Cache is modified to actually restore the
> OriginArtifact's orignal Artifact correctly.
