Description:
I have the problem that I have created fresh and most-recent new snaphot
jars in my _local_ repository (lets say in project A).

Now I like to test them inside Project B with depends upon this
snapshots jar!

Problem: In online mode, maven downloads the snapshots jars from it's
remove repository and overwrites the fresh most-recent jars which I just
installed into my local repo.

As a workaround, of course I can run in offline mode, but this has other
drawbacks (e.g. if meanwhile project B needs to download a new jar).

Is there any option inside maven to prevent such a behaviour in online
mode?  IMHO maven should replace the snapshot jar only if the remote
version is _really_ younger than the one on my local harddrive!

You help and comments highly appreciated - I *really* need this...
I am sorry but I was unable to provide a patch - have no idea where to check the maven sources.  If one helps me a little and tells me which classes do the download, I am looking into the source myself.
Thanks in advance,
Martin
