    Description

      I'm running dependency:copy via the CLI to download a .jar artifact. This leads to a long list of downloads during the plugin's execution since the artifact's POM, its Parent POM and all imported BOMs are resolved.

      Is this really necessary? You might argue that downloading the artifact's POM is absolutely needed, but I don't see the point of resolving the parent (and the rest) as well.
