Re: [m2e-users] What is the "sha1 prefix" referred to in the "Add" dialo

[Matthew Piggott <mpiggott@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Looks like it searches the index by sha1 - https://github.com/eclipse/m2e-core/blob/89cd40ba907e178d523f40ac22f7eac0291de37b/org.eclipse.m2e.core/src/org/eclipse/m2e/core/internal/index/nexus/NexusIndexManager.java#L418

So if for some reason you knew the sha1 but not the precise coordinates ...

When adding a dependency, the label in the "Add" dialog says "Enter groupId, artifactId or sha1 prefix or pattern(*)".  I've gone through this dialog billions of times and never really read that label.  What exactly is a "sha1 prefix" in this context?
