Appending to an Existing p2 repository [message #682342]

Is there a way to have buckminster append the results of a p2.site operation to an existing repository? The final result of the process would be to have multiple versions of the built product within the same repository.

Edit:

Upon further study I found this previous answer:

I'd like to request the ablity to flag the p2.site action in buckminster with a directive to simply add items not currently present in the repository to the appropriate directories and then amend the meta-data documents. This addition could really simplify this use case. It would remove a second-party library from the tool chain, as well as all the necessary ant work to archive the existing repository, fire bucky up for the new build, and then run b3 to get the desired result.

No automatically. The easiest is probably to copy each (promoted build)
to a location where you have a composite repo set up (one that points to
all the included individually build repositories).
