The choices for "Use private Maven repository" are: * Default (~/.m2/repository) * Local to the Executor * Local to the Workspace Is the ~ in ~/.m2/repository some shared general user across all build running (possibly concurrently) on this machine (e.g. "jenkins") Is the Executor one instance of potentially multiple "runners" of builds on this single machine? Is the "Workspace" for a particular build configuration reused for subsequent builds - in other words, if I made the repository local to the Workspace, would I be isolated from other work running on Jenkins, and yet get reuse in this repo for subsequent builds of this same configuration? Thanks for clarifying. I'm happy to read the "manual" if someone can point me in the right direction... -Marshall > >> We have a repository in our infrastructure that mirrors Maven Central - the >> repository.apache.org machine. >> >> Is that set up as a mirror for our Jenkins maven builds, when the Jenkins >> configuration for settings file is set to "Use default maven settings"? > If you want to deploy snapshots to repository.a.o yes. >> I see there is also a choice for settings file which is "provided >> settings.xml" >> which, in turn, gives 2 sub-choices: >> * archiva-deploy-snapshots-settings and > This one is used to deploy to our Archiva instance ( > https://archiva-repository.apache.org/archiva/index.html?request_lang=en > ) and use this Archiva instance as a mirror of central >> * simple-deploy-settings-no-mirror > contains settings to deploy to repository.a.o > >> Is the first one of these the same as "Use default maven settings"? >> >> If this is all documented somewhere for our installation, can you point me >> to that? >> >> Thanks, and apologies for the many questions! >> >> -Marshall Schor > > > -- > Olivier Lamy > Ecetera: http://ecetera.com.au > http://twitter.com/olamy | http://linkedin.com/in/olamy >
