Tip
titleSymlinking the Cache Directory

On Unix, Maven will download many external jars to your home directory. This can be a problem if you have limited disk space. The easiest way to get around this problem is creating a symlink from an area where you have more space.

Code Block

cd /scratch/
mkdir .maven
cd ~
ln -s /scratch/.maven

Now the location on the scratch disk will hold the Maven downloads rather than the home directory.
