$maven dependencies resolver

[kgignatyev]

how difficult it might be to add $maven dependency resolver?
so it would use ~/.m2/settings.xml that lists local repository mirrors and local private repos?

Okay, I did exactly this with #580, not sure why the Scala 2.10.6 build in Trevor specifically and not others. Any comment would be appreciated.

As of 662859f, you should be able to use @alexarchambault's Coursier APIs to create your own maven resolver, and with b5c44b0 you should be able to properly add resolvers in multi-block scripts.

I'm not sure whether Coursier comes with a builtin way of dealing with settings.xml, but it should be possible to load that config in some way without needing to patch Ammonite itself I think

Yeah, coursier doesn't load things from ~/.m2/settings.xml. It might have some global config file at some point, which I can imagine could allow to load settings from ~/.m2/settings.xml too.
