How to upload a pom.xml into an internal repository?

[Cla Emanuel Monsch <cl...@netcetera.ch>]

Hi

I'm using 'jdom 1.0'. But I've the problem that this pom which comes 
from the remote repository contains false dependencies. Therefore I will 
include the corrected jdom pom.xml into our company wide internal 
repository.

- Does it suffice to insert just the pom (without any artifacts) into 
the internal repository? Because the artifacts are already available in 
the remote repository.

- How can I insert a pom.xml into the internal repository?


Thanks

Probably not, since you don't have control of what order Maven
searches repositories.  Are developers able to contact both your
internal repo *and* central?

If instead you are proxying central, then you have the chance to
"correct" problems like this.

In general it's not a good idea for there to be different files with
the same groupId/artifactId/version number.  You might want to deploy
it with a different version number, such as 1.0-[mycompany].

What are you using to serve your internal repository?

mvn deploy:deploy-file should work.  I find that using both -Dfile=
and -DpomFile is easiest, though it does deploy the file twice.  The
alternative is specifying -DgroupId, -DartifactId, etc., etc., which
is more error prone.
