The way I did it was
dir /b *.jar >> bag_of_jars.txt
Then I used regex's to turn bag_of_jars.txt into a batch file with mvn
deploy:deploy-file -DgeneratePom=true -Dfile=...
and I ran the batch file.
It's a once off, and since you have to tweak the groupId's to match what's
in the global repos anyway, automation is less useful
