Re: [p2-dev] How is the agent cache used?

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think so. The cache filename
is based entirely on the name and URL of the remote repository file. If
you update the remote file timestamp it will cause the local cache file
to be overwritten with the new contents, but won't create a separate filename.
