Description

According to Dan Tran the merge-maven-repos goal does not work with SNAPSHOTS. I could not find an issue open for that so here we go.

Here is a link to my original e-mail with Dan's response.

FWIW, it appears to me that there is a problem with the maven-metadata.xml files that get merged. Here is an example of a badly merged file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<metadata modelVersion="1.1.0">
  <groupId>myGroup</groupId>
  <artifactId>MyArtifact</artifactId>
  <version>10.2.6-SNAPSHOT</version>
  <versioning>
    <snapshot>
      <timestamp>20130313.165705</timestamp>
      <buildNumber>1</buildNumber>
    </snapshot>
    <lastUpdated>20130313165705</lastUpdated>
    <snapshotVersions>
      <snapshotVersion>
        <classifier>MyClassifier</classifier>
        <extension>zip</extension>
        <value>10.2.6-20130311.175410-1</value>
        <updated>20130311175410</updated>
      </snapshotVersion>
      <snapshotVersion>
        <extension>pom</extension>
        <value>10.2.6-20130311.175410-1</value>
        <updated>20130311175410</updated>
      </snapshotVersion>
    </snapshotVersions>
  </versioning>
</metadata>
