Description

Hi,

In order to build a pipelined build where the downstream builds use the upstream artifacts we need to clean the SNAPSHOT versions (the downstream depends on) from the local repository and always download them from the internal Maven repository.

To achieve this it would be very useful to have possibility to tell purge-local-repositiry goal to clean only the SNAPSHOT dependencies, something like snapshotsOnly parameter.

A patch with the fix we use locally is attached.

Thanks,
Hrabur
