Build error with mirror in settings.xml

[tschulte]

In our ~/.m2/settings.xml we have defined to use our mirror for all repositories:

<mirrors>
    <mirror>
        <id>internal-repository</id>
        <name>Our Nexus</name>
        <url>http://nexus/content/groups/public</url>
        <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
    </mirror>
</mirrors>

But this causes following error when building with wuff:

Can be solved by using

<mirrorOf>external:*</mirrorOf>

See https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-mirror-settings.html#Advanced_Mirror_Specification

I don't think this is an error of Wuff.

But the task uploadEclipse does still fail if a mirror is set. Maybe it would be better to use builtin gradle tools to upload, instead of the maven-ant-task.

Transition to builtin gradle tools: some time later, it would require redesign. What you observe is apparently a bug in maven-ant-tasks, which is fixed in version 2.1.4-SNAPSHOT. Please see relevant JIRA. I just tried - things really work with maven-ant-tasks 2.1.4-SNAPSHOT. Mirrors in settings.xml are happily ignored by deployment. I'll try to integrate maven-ant-tasks 2.1.4-SNAPSHOT now...

Fixed in Wuff 0.0.13-SNAPSHOT. Could you, please, test it? You don't have to add any repos whatsoever, fix is automagical.
