has anything changed with

mavenLocal()

? I see that the section “the case for mavenLocal()“ was removed in this commit which went was part of the

8.10

release. The current version of the page has no discussion, nor does it mention repository content filtering at all

It was removed with some reworks and on my complaint added back in. Nothing changed regarding the situation.

well, i don’t know that the same advice was relaly added back. no where (that i can find) does it seem to suggest that you really should use filtering if you must use mavenLocal() anymore

Here is the "case against" section including content filter: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/supported_repository_types.html#sec:case-for-maven-local

yeah, i guess it’s tough to find the right place to put something like that. though i think it was definitely closer to most folk’s “point of use” in the previous iteration. seems like it should warrant at least a link back from the section on configuring mavenLocal in

Declaring Repositories

. The majority of folks i’d imagine will read the HOW section, but may not ever come across the reference information on different repo types

Feel free to open a doc improvement request. I'm just a user like you. :-)
