Is it safe to delete Maven repository?

Re-downloads when needed Yes, but it has to be fetched again.

Java dependencies Maven and Gradle downloaded, plus anything you installed locally with mvn install, which may exist nowhere else.

Where it is

• ~/.m2/repository

What “Re-downloads when needed” means

It can be downloaded or reinstalled again, but that takes time and data, and sometimes you have to do it yourself. ClearMac lists these items but never pre-selects them.

How ClearMac handles it

ClearMac lists it with this label but never pre-selects it. If you choose it, it goes to the Trash, so you can put it back until you empty the Trash.

This page is generated from the same rule ClearMac uses on your Mac (maven.repository), so the app and this page always say the same thing.
