I think we should do the right thing and be compatibile with Maven.


I think the default should stay the same in the 1.4.x branch, but could 
be changed for the next major release (=1.5.0).
And, it is easy to add this to the build with the 
Buildr.application.options.unique_version option in the buildfile, so it 
is okay for me.


Great job anyway !

Maven SNAPSHOT timestamps

2011-03-11 Thread Alex Boisvert
So we got a nice
contributionhttps://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-572from
Brice Figureau to add timestamps when uploading Maven SNAPSHOT
artifacts.

As it stands, the feature is only enabled with --unique-version is passed on
the command-line or when Buildr.application.options.unique_version is set to
true.

I'm tempted to turn the feature on by default since I believe it's the right
thing to do (compatibility-wise) on Maven repos.  However, it could be a
breaking change if people currently depend on SNAPSHOTs being updated
in-place instead of uploading a new artifact with a timestamp.

Anybody has a strong opinion about this?
