The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the
Apache Maven Install Plugin, version 3.0.0-M1.

The Install Plugin is used during the install phase to add artifact(s) to the
local repository. The Install Plugin uses the information in the POM (groupId,
artifactId, version) to determine the proper location for the artifact within
the local repository.

Important Note since 3.0.0-M1:

  • Maven 3.X only
  • Minimum JDK 7+
  • The maven-install-plugin does not generate any kind of checksum
    anymore.

Usage Note:

  • Use the maven-install-plugin 3.0.0-M1 only in combination
    with the maven-deploy-plugin 3.0.0-M1.
