Comments on: Archiva’s Big 1.0! http://blogs.exist.com/oching/2007/11/27/archivas-big-10/ Thoughts to ponder..

I believe there's no way to control the permissions to disable the user from doing this. On the same note, the current permissions supported in the repositories are just 'read and write' (Repository Manager role) and 'read only' (Repository Observer role).

When building maven 2 projects, you could set up in your settings.xml file to have Maven get the artifacts that you need from the above mentioned proxy repositories.<br />  <br /> Aside from the above functionalities, Archiva also has other features such as repository search & browse, repository purge (that is, cleanup your repository of old snapshots), finding unknown artifacts and reporting.<br /> <br /> I hope this somewhat answers your questions =) There's also documentation available on the web site if you need more details.<br /> <br /> Thanks!<br /> Hi, a build artifact repository manager is a tool you would use for managing and hosting your internal (local network) repositories and use these repositories for your build (as proxies of remote repositories).

I hope this somewhat answers your questions =) There’s also documentation available on the web site if you need more details.

Thanks!

I’ve downloaded and run it. It appears to only hold a junit jar and nothing else.

I use both Maven2 and ANT but, what am I supposed to be doing with Archiva? What does this web app actually do?
