Nick Boldt commented on JBTIS-89:
---------------------------------

Ah, my mistake. Not sure if you can mirror w/o including references, since that's the way p2 creates a mirror.

However, you can remove references immediately after mirroring, simply by removing the chunk of XML that contains the <references>.

Here's an ant script that you could call via antrun plugin from your pom, which uses XSLT to find and remove the entire <references> node in the content.xml:

> I don't see how this repo could be used in a jbds setting when it contains repository references to jbt repositories.  My understanding was that this repo only contained the extra dependencies for jbt-is.  By including these references, if this repo is used in jbds, all those linked repos will be available too, polluting the pool of available features/bundles.
