Research direction

Start by reproducing a Maven build with --update-snapshots and compare its handling of SNAPSHOT and final dependencies. Read the plugin's snapshot-resolution and update logic; done means the flag updates SNAPSHOT dependencies without updating final dependencies, avoiding the longer build time described.

Description

enhancement priority:major

Benjamin Muschko opened MSOURCES-148 and commented

Executing the build with the flag --update-snapshots should only update SNAPSHOT dependencies. The plugin doesn't seem to evaluate this flag. Running the build with the flag will update SNAPSHOT and final dependencies leading to a much longer build time.
