Re: Bootstrap/pre-processing class?

Is it possible to just configure Google Artifact Repository as another
repository in the grapeConfig.xml? Using username and password
authentication setup through GAR, and then use Grab as you normally would?

I don't really have much experience with GAR, so I may be very mistaken.

Thank you,
