Bug 40163: Avoid checking hash of .pom files

A pom file of hosted third-party dependencies may be modified at any time after publication. These files contain metadata about a version of a repository. We avoid computing and verifying the hash of downloaded .pom files that are listed in a project's gradle-dependencies-list.txt because they change unpredictably. This should be safe while the .pom file is not modified in such a way that it is rejected by gradle and while we still check the hash of non-.pom files. --- projects/common/fetch-gradle-dependencies | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
