I wanted to ask before I report this as a bug.
I have a Maven repository to which artifact snapshots are deployed with the Maven option uniqueVersion=true (see here).
This means the suvollst/1.2-SNAPSHOT directory on the Maven repo currently looks like this:

My Gradle project pulls in those snapshots as dependencies but even with --refresh-dependencies and deleting the Gradle caches, Gradle downloads stale/old snapshots instead of the newest ones.
Is this a bug or can I somehow get Gradle to actually download the newest snapshots?
