> The current WebDAV wagon implements putDirectory as a recursive sequence of individual put commands for the individual files. This means that failure of an individual put will abort the entire putDirectory.
> This, of course, is generally correct and desired behaviour. However, in a few cases it may not be critical that all files in a directory are correctly uploaded. The use case in mind here is uploading Maven sites to not 100% reliable DAV resources, e.g. Google Code (see also [WAGON-319]).
> The request would be thus to add a "continueOnFailure" option (or similar) which would not throw a TransferFailureException if put fails, but instead log a warning or similar. This option would be false by default.
> Admittedly, the better/"correct" place to address this issue would be in the code that *calls* the wagon (in the case of this example, in the Maven Site plugin), because it can make the context-specific decision of whether to be lenient with errors or not.
> However, there is no "putDirectoryLeniently" wagon method that the parent can call, and this use case does not seem significant enough to merit changing the wagon interface.
