Hi, I consider p2 repositories as generated content, therefore i do not check them in in version control. In my target file i use only remote locations that points to p2 mirrors on an internal webserver. Repositories from external projects (for example the eclipse helios repository, or the eclipse orbit repository) are mirrored on that webserver. Repositories from internal projects are mirrored to that webserver in the build process. The successive repositories of a project are grouped in a composite repository. About best practices: i always look for them, but in the end there are many possibilities that cannot be covered in best practices. I look at the situation and use the combination of tools that works best for that situation. While using remote locations in my target file works for my current situation, it won't work if i have no access to that remote location (f.e. at home).

The question is what do you define in your .target: * In https://github.com/sonatype/sonatype-tycho/blob/master/tycho-its/projects/TYCHO59targetDefinition/target-platform/platform.target we reference a local (right?) repository located at repositories/e342. How do you make that repository available to all developers: you either check it in version control or have another way of sharing it. What is the best practice here? * In my target definition I use a remote location pointing to a project wide nexus p2 repository mirror of helios. This way each developer gets it from a common location which is under our control. I assumed that would be the best practice but seem to not be quite right.
