[jira] (MNG-3472) configuration possibilities to limit size of local repository

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3472?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=313161#comment-313161 ] 

cforce commented on MNG-3472:
-----------------------------

I think maven should provide at least the method to be able t purge the local repository similar to the nexus server option (number of snapshots, release and days to keep, delete spnaphosts if released), also this job must be triggered from external tool, like ej. jenkins or devscript.
Would be great if someone can posts plugin or scripts which can do such work in the meantime.
Pleas repopen this issue.

> it would be great to make repository-size configurable, for instance by setting the maximum number of downloads of a snapshot-version to be kept. thus the explosion of local repository size can be reduced.
> especially when you are working with many in-house multi-module projects which are marked as snapshots before released , can increase repository size significantly.
