Description

--repository-dump-dir currently dumps current metadata that repository is serving.

If it is seen useful, we could also output the targets we are serving:

  • could create the directory structure that the web server is using
  • the artifact filename should be hash prefixed I suppose

Research direction

Start by tracing the --repository-dump-dir option and how the repository currently serves metadata. Clarify whether versioned metadata and target artifacts should be dumped, what directory structure and hash-prefixed filenames are required, and define tests that verify the resulting dump.
