Hi,  
Is it possible to pass any other file other than jar to create a pom using the curl command  
curl -v -u admin:admin123 -F “maven2.generate-pom=true” -F “maven2.groupId=com.example” -F “maven2.artifactId=commercial-product” -F “maven2.packaging=jar” -F “version=1.0.0” -F “maven2.asset1=@/absolute/path/to/the/local/file/product.jar;type=application/java-archive” -F “maven2.asset1.extension=jar” “[http://localhost:8081/service/rest/v1/components?repository=maven-third-party](http://localhost:8081/service/rest/v1/components?repository=maven-third-party)”
