> Neat. Is this intended to replace the old build-jar-repository tool?
Yes, that's one of use cases, but there are some limitations. JARs
being replaced must be built with Maven (they need to have
pom.properties file which specified groupId/artifactId/version), so XMvn
Subst won't be able to replace JARs built with Ant, for example.
Example usage:
$ xmvn-subst --help
xmvn-subst: Substitute artifact files with symbolic links
Usage: xmvn-subst [options]
Options:
-X, --debug
Display debugging information
Default: false
-L, --follow-symlinks
Follow symbolic links when traversing directory structure
Default: false
-h, --help
Display usage information
Default: false
-t, --type
Consider artifacts with given type
Default: [jar, war]
-D
Define system property
Syntax: -Dkey=value
Default: {}
