I'm currently trying to migrate my old maven repo to my new nexus repo, but when uploading it from local cache (using -cd) all artifacts get uploaded just fine. But no maven-metadata.xml is uploaded.

Also a quick question, can I delete the md5 and sha1 checksum files before I upload?

The maven metadata file should NOT be uploaded by design as it is specific to the local repository or source repo. The target repo manager has to be able to fix it based on its content ..

And the md5 and sha1 files can be deleted or kept .. either is fine but should probably be kept.
