[jira] Closed: (MNG-470) Don't search custom repositories on default and link dependencies to repositories.

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-470?page=all ]
     
Brett Porter closed MNG-470:
----------------------------

     Resolution: Duplicate
    Fix Version:     (was: 2.0-alpha-3)

there is already an issue open for the plugin issue you talk about. As for the other part of the request, I believe it is "won't fix". You can override an existing repo by reusing the ID, but otherwise it must be included.

> When an additional repository is defined in the pom, it gets prepended to the search
> path. 
> I'd like to add an option to the repository definition (both for plugin and normal artifacts)
> that says something like 'dont-consult-on-default'.
> Then add another option to dependencies and plugin references like
>   <repo>repo1</repo> (optional)
> that states which repository should be consulted.
> A part of the problem is that when plugin developers host their own plugins,
> the repository is prepended to the repository list, and for every artifact of the same
> type (normal or plugin) the repository gets checked first, and finally ibiblio. This causes
> unnecessary load on the plugin providers repositories.
> Further, if a plugin gets resolved to a specific repository, some dependencies
> are most likely also on that repository. If the repository the plugin is hosted on is
> listed as a 'normal' repository then one could specify some dependencies to
> that repository in the pom, so it only gets consulted when needed.
