Is this possible in Maven dependencies downloads to resume a
download which stopped?
For example, our project has a dependency JAR of 360 MB and sometimes our VPN
expires and then the download stalls.
I would like to resume it from the moment it stopped, as we take hours to
download this file everyday.
It there a way to have such a "download manager" feature which will enable
maven to resume downloads, just that.
I am newbie so please understand.
Thanks

Break down the jar into more functionally related units.
A set of smaller jars will be more stable and easier to work on.
Where are you downloading from?
Perhaps you need a repo that is closer to your development team.

You can do this if you write your own Wagon implementation.

Not currently. This seems like an absurdly huge file to be downloading
over a slow VPN connection on a daily basis. Either way find a way to
download it via some process that can be resumed, or even better, find
a way to break it up into multiple smaller chunks that change less
often.
Surely the entire file does not change on a daily basis but rather
only small bits of it, right?
