I have a
maven eclipse project. I also have a maven repository sitting on .m2/repository folder. I want to add some project dependant jar files from a folder C:/external folders in my eclipse maven project. Should I copy the jars into my maven repository or just make a reference to the jar files on C:/external not in the maven repository. I just want to know whether this is the correct approach for a Maven project. Should I copy the jars of C:/external into my maven repository. Please suggest.
Regards
Thomas
