Auto drop repository after release

[szpak]

It turned out there is an undocumented parameter "autoDropAfterRelease" which drops staging repository "immediately" after release (in earlier Nexus versions it seemed to happen automatically anyway). It would be good to use it to time when more that one staging repository exists.

As that feature is not documented in the REST API it would be needed to create a functional tests with fake Nexus user to verify it's behavior before going to production.

I write some exploratory tests to verify that switch and unfortunately Nexus responses with:

400 Bad Request

for unknown reason.

I also noticed that API mentioned in on the mailing list uses stagedRepositoryIds with a list while I use stagedRepositoryId with just one element. I may be using different API. However, there is no documentation for that part of API, so the problem could be caused by anything else........ 😠
