We are using Artifact Registry to manage our Java packages. We previously used Nexus and have recently begun using AR as our solution in GCP. As our CI system is publishing more and more artifacts into it, we have noticed that for a given unique GroupId, ArtifactId and Version, there seems to be no limit to the number of files that will be retained. So, for a given snapshot version that gets rebuilt 30 times a day, there are files for each of those 30 times in Artifact Registry. The cleanup policies available within AR seem to be focused on Versions of artifacts, such that you can make sure only a certain number of versions are retained, or versions with a certain age are deleted, etc... But I am interested in limiting the number of files for a given version. Nexus gives you the ability to configure how many files representing distinct versions you want to retain, I'm looking for something similar in AR. Is there such a thing?
