Share downloaded dependencies : does it work with snapshots?

Help/Discuss
1

Gradle 6.2 fixed the Let multiple containers share downloaded dependencies. My question is, does it work well with snapshots?

Does Gradle still honor changing resolution mechanisms? If a changing is too old both in the RW and RO dependencies caches, will it consult remote repositories to download latest builds?

We have a rsync task synchronizing local RW caches with a shared RO one, and it would ease things if we could rsync everything but gc.properties and lock files as specified in the doc.

Thanks

Yes it does. Newer snapshots will be downloaded in the write cache.
