 * <p>A resolver that can only be used for uploading artifacts to a Maven repository. If you use this resolver for
 * getting dependencies from a Maven repository, an exception is thrown. This resolver support all aspects of Maven
 * deployment, including snapshot deployment and metadata.xml manipulation.</p>
 *
 * <p>You have to specify at least one repository. Otherwise, if there is only one artifact, usually there is not more
 * to do. If there is more than one artifact you have to decide what to do about this, as a Maven POM can only deal with
 * one artifact. There are two strategies. If you want to deploy only one artifact you have to specify a filter to
 * select this artifact. If you want to deploy more than one artifact, you have to specify filters which select each
 * artifact. Associated with each filter is a separate configurable POM.</p>
 *
 * <p>You can create an instance of this type via the {@link org.gradle.api.tasks.Upload#getRepositories()}
