Description

The documentation for retry https://maven.apache.org/wagon/wagon-providers/wagon-http/ says that a custom retry handler should implement org.apache.http.client.Interface HttpRequestRetryHandler.

This is may not be true as at least the wagon-http used by Maven has packaged (forked) a custom version of common-httpclient inside so the interface which should be implemented in the case of Maven is actually org.apache.maven.wagon.providers.http.httpclient.client.HttpRequestRetryHandler.

 

The reason I dont submit a PR fixing this is that I am unsure whether this is just an issue for how Maven uses wagon or if is an issue with wagon it self.
