title: Maven deploy: forcing the deploy even if artifact already exists
body: <p>I'm building a project, which is made up from several (sometimes unrelated) modules and some more non standard java modules (built with ANT).</p>
  
  <p>Each maven module is deployed to the releases repository on completion.</p>
  
  <p>If the build fails in the middle, I might have some modules already deployed, so if I try to rebuild, the new attempt to deploy will fail since the artifacts are already deployed.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to force a deploy or instead, remove the deployed artifact before I deploy again?</p>
