Maven: Set name of final packaged artifacts

Here's how to set the final name of the artifact generated by Maven.

<build>
  <!-- Sets name of regular artifact -->
  <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>

  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.4</version>
      <configuration>
        <!-- Name of assembled jar with all dependencies -->
        <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
        <!-- Set to false to prevent '-jar-with-dependencies' to be appended to the file name -->
        <appendAssemblyId>true</appendAssemblyId>
        <descriptorRefs>
          <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
        </descriptorRefs>
      </configuration>
      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>make-assembly</id>
          <phase>package</phase>
          <goals>
            <goal>single</goal>
          </goals>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

Note that we use a variable here so that the name will be the same as the artifactId. It could of course also be just a regular hard coded string. Also note that since we're using the same name for both packaged artifacts, the latter (the one with dependencies) will overwrite the first.
