Description

If I build a multi-module project with intermodule dependencies, Maven will still check the snapshot repository for module artifacts in order to update the metadata in the local repository. Maven should not check the snapshot repository for any artifacts that are currently in the reactor.

In addition, if I install a snapshot artifact to the local repository, and then build another project that depends on the first project, Maven will check the snapshot repository. Instead, Maven should only check the snapshot repository when there is no up to date (according to the update policy) local artifact installation.

This seems to be working normally in Maven 3.0-alpha-6, but still requires more testing.

Fixed in r928842. As long as the local copy satifies the update policy configured on a remote repository, Maven will not fetch the remote repository's metadata.
