I looked in the source and found that it is checking for updated snapshots via a maven-metadata.xml which contains the latest update timestamp. 
But I don't have that metadata file, is that something my repository (nexus) should create? 

My problem with the update_snapshots option is that it always updates and therefore always forces a recompile of the whole project.

Therefore I don't think it needs to be available as a setting in the yaml file,
and would rather find a way to have snapshots only update when they are newer than in my local repository.
