[jira] Created: (MAVEN-1738) Don't try to download SNAPSHOTs built in the same build

Don't try to download SNAPSHOTs built in the same build
-------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MAVEN-1738
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MAVEN-1738
     Project: Maven
        Type: Improvement

  Components: core  
    Versions: 1.1-beta-2    
    Reporter: Aaron Mulder
     Fix For: 1.1-beta-3


The Geronimo build includes like 50 modules.  During normal development, these are SHAPSHOTs.  As of Maven 1.1-beta2, each SNAPSHOT is downloaded at most once during the build, which cut down on a lot of extraneous downloads (that is, say 40 of the 50 modules depend on geronimo-kernel, Maven will only check to download it once).

However, since the geronimo build actually *builds* geronimo-kernel, there's no need to check to download it at all.  It would be great if, as a module is built, if that module is a SNAPSHOT, it would be added to the "previously checked snapshots" list, so no subsequent modules that depends on it would attempt to download it at all.  That would eliminate nearly all the download activity during the Geronimo build, making it *substantially* faster.

Thanks.
