maven远程仓库访问顺序

首先需要了解一下各个配置文件，主要分为三类：

1. 全局配置文件(${maven.home}/conf/settings.xml)，maven安装路径下的/conf/settings.xml
2. 用户配置文件(%USER_HOME%/.m2/settings.xml)，windows用户文件夹下
3. 项目配置文件：pom.xml

原文地址：What are the different types of profile? Where is each defined?

以上是mave下载依赖的大概过程，先会从本地仓库（${user.home}/.m2/repository 默认本地仓库）找，本地没有就会去远程仓库（https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/默认远程仓库）找。
仓库顺序原文地址：Profile Order

可能有些人不知道Parent POM和Super POM是什么意思，这里解释一下。
Parent POM：当前项目的父项目的pom文件

Super POM：顶级父pom，maven已经定义好的，就像java中所有类继承的Object一样，可能版本不一样有所不同。
以下是3.6.3的Super POM：
