Description

When using goal deploy:deploy-file, and a Windows URL is used of the form "file://host/share/...." containing an invalid host name or share, maven reports XXX K uploaded and BUILD SUCCESSFUL.
NOTE: if a URL of the form "file://\\nonexistenthost\share\..." is used, the command fails as expected. However, as soon as one backslash after "share" is replaced by a frontslash, the goal fails silently (i.e. reports success).

Example of silent failure:

mvn deploy:deploy-file -Detc.... -Durl=file://nonexistenthost/share/Maven-repository
--> output:
