Overriding ivysettings defaults

By default ivy has its configurations in ivysettings.xml present in ivy.jar.

ivysettings.xml

<ivysettings>
   <settings defaultResolver="default"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-public.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-shared.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-local.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-main-chain.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-default-chain.xml"/>
</ivysettings>

To override public repository setting, update the contents of ivysettings-public.xml or create the ivysettings.xml in setting folder of your project.

ivysettings.xml

<ivysettings>
   <settings defaultResolver="default"/>
   <include url="http://customserver/ivy/ivysettings-public.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-shared.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-local.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-main-chain.xml"/>
   <include url="${ivy.default.settings.dir}/ivysettings-default-chain.xml"/>
</ivysettings>

Update the default ivysetting-public.xml contents.
