D: I tried using a maven repository and it doesn’t know that the tarballs are snapshots so it lets you store as many as you want. I guess we could fudge a maven environment and generate the tarballs as snapshots, but that’s silly work. I know I can do the versioning with a script. But, since artifactory already has a similar approach for maven/gradle/ivy, it would seem symmetrical to have a similar policy for generic repositories. Plus, we are actually deploying our artifacts from bamboo using the default artifactory plugin so we would have to reproduce that. It just seems this is something that artifactory should support. Thanks.

(We retain 7, but the idea is the same.) Then added it to crontab. Interested in knowing if there’s a better way. Theoretically, I suppose you could use a maven repository to store tarballs. For some reason, I’ve got a maven repo with a bunch of ISOs in it. :-D -Dave P.
