What Anders tells you in a lot of word is: Your last sentence does
not make
sense in Maven terminology. The local repository is on your home
directory
and you will *never* deploy something there, "deploy" means always a
remote
repository.
Ah okay. Then maven-deploy-plugin isn't for me it seems.

- install:install-file - will add artifact manually to local repo
Ah nice, good enough for now.
Yeah I know Anders will facepalm over this, but it can't be helped -
I'm still not seing the use case for a repo server, I'm using maven as
a download and build tool for now, deployment (to repositories as well
as to the public) is months away and I have a gazillion of other
issues to work on.
Repositories are not public in most cases. It is a way to work with
Maven internally.
You are going to generate a gazillion of Maven issues that are
completely avoidable.
And yes, a jar that contains only the sources (must have proper layout
though) can be installed as an artifact with classifier "sources"
(that's
what the maven-sources-plugin does) and you can do this manually with
one of
the goals above - depending on your target.
I'll just add an execution with install-file in the pom of the
dependency project I think.
I think this requires the dependency install to be manually run before
the main project install. This is counter to Maven's "make the process
fully automatic" idea, but I don't need that - the dependency needs
manual intervention to upgrade, so it's no issue to finish the upgrade
procedure with a mvn install, before returning to the regular
scheduled main project.
Would this work?
With the itsy bitsy teeny weeny exception that it won't scale beyond a
single co-contributor or too many dependencies handled in that way. I
know I'll have to tackle the repository server when that happens.
Are there other signs of trouble I should be watching out for?
Thanks to everybody for their time and patience!

Jo
