Description
It would be quite useful if one could create a "latest" symlink in nexus so it would always point to latest released version of an artifact.
This would be especially handy for distribution artifacts, like:
https://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/jboss/windup/windup-distribution/latest/ (N/A now)
insted of
I can imagine 2 ways:
1) Regularly updated soft links in the repo's file system
2) Through URL handling, always parsing the Maven meta info XML in the directory containing the versions directories, and replacing "/latest" with "/<latest-version-found>".
