Description

Having been burned on several occasions by the new local repository behaviour, which in effect scopes artifacts by their origin (when first stored in the local repository), I was delighted by the introduction of the -llr command line option in 3.0.3. I now use this behaviour for all builds to avoid the build instability caused by remote repository migration. This avoids the need to start each build with:

find ~/.m2/repository -name "_*.repositories" -exec rm -f {} \;

Given that users of -llr have made an informed choice to do so, please remove the (in my view unnecessary) warning that it generates:

[WARNING] Disabling enhanced local repository: using legacy is strongly discouraged to ensure build reproducibility.

Kind regards,
Ben.
