Mathias De Maré commented on IVY-1447:
--------------------------------------

There appears to be an issue in the patch, overwriteMode is set to null. So I believe I misinterpreted how options are passed. I'll need to find a fix for that.

> Right now, the default overwriteMode during retrieve is 'newer'.
> This is causing problems for us now (incorrect artifacts being loaded).
> Since we don't use ant, but commandline access to Ivy, there's no way for us to fix this issue.
> It would be great to either:
> - add a commandline option to manage overwriteMode
> - add overwriteMode to ivysettings.xml, so it can be overridden there
