title: How do I download a Maven artifact at the command line without using dependency:get or maven-download-plugin?
body: <p>I'd like to download an artifact and its dependencies at the command line. I.e.</p>
  
  <pre><code>mvn [some plugin]:[goal] -DartifactId=[artifactId] -DgroupId=[groupId] -Dversion=[version]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried mvn dependency:get but this seems to require a list of remote repositories. I want mvn to use what's already specified in settings.xml</p>
  
  <p>I've also tried the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/maven-download-plugin/" rel="noreferrer">maven-download-plugin</a> but this doesn't seem to work properly (it tried downloading xerces-impl as a transitive dependency of ant and failed to resolve it. Neither xerces-impl nor ant are dependencies of my artifact).</p>
  
  <p>Your help would be appreciated.</p>
