You mean delete only the snapshots, right? Not "all but". You should only put snapshots in the remote repository when you need to use them elsewhere. Once they are used elsewhere, they can't be removed or some other build (perhaps in CVS history) won't work.
Given that your remote repository is as clean as possible, cleaning the local one is quite simple: delete it :) This of course assumes you are working somewhere near your remote repo which is cheap to download from. If you are at home over dialup this can be a problem. I think the best way to clean in this case is to move your repository to a new location, and add the file:// location to your list of remotes. Once all your projects are building, your "local" one is clean so you can remove the old one. This does take more space in the interim though... - Brett > -----Original Message----- > From: Sonnek, Ryan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, 24 October 2003 6:17 AM > To: 'Maven Users List' > Subject: repository plugin clean feature > > > I'd like to get some feedback on an idea I have for the > repository plugin.
