Cannot use "-DarchetypeRepository" if you have <mirrors> * in your settings.xml 
file

                 Key: ARCHETYPE-176
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-176
             Project: Maven Archetype
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Creator, Generator
    Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-3
         Environment: Java 6
Maven 2.0.9
            Reporter: Jeff Campbell


I'm using the following command to create a new project from a custom archetype 
from a 3rd party Maven repo (only
the relevant portion of the command is below):

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeRepository=http://somehost.com/mvnrepo 
.....(other -D params for thecustom archetype)...

But, because I have the following in my settings.xml file, I cannot
access the repository specified by the "-DarchetypeRepository":

    <mirrors>
        <mirror>
            <id>my.nexus</id>
            <name> Nexus Mirror</name>
            <url>http://somehost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
            <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
        </mirror>
    </mirrors>

Work around(s):
1. Don't use <mirrors> section all together in the settings.xml file. 
2. List every single possible maven repo site mirror, in Nexus, that I can 
possibly think of to hopefully cover every possible custom archetype that will 
ever be used? (yikes!)
