             Summary: artifactItem documentation
                 Key: MDEP-805
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-805
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ewa Śliwińska


I'm trying to find information about {_}type{_}, _overWrite_ and _outputDirectory_ tags in _artifactItem_ in _unpack_ goal (if they are mandatory and what should be their content).

When googling, I'm finding those two sites:
 * [Apache Maven Dependency Plugin – dependency:unpack|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/unpack-mojo.html]
 * [Apache Maven Dependency Plugin – Usage|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/usage.html]

The former roughly mentions what the _artifactItem_ contains, but without detailed explanation.

The latter shows an example, but also does not specify the possible contents in details. Also it says
{quote}A default outputDirectory is specified
{quote}
but doesn't mention what is the default.

Could you please add more comprehensive description of those tags?

Thank you in advance.
