Deattaching project from maven dependencies

[PavelTurk]

I have MyProject that uses, for example, log4j2. So, I have maven dependencies that are taken from local maven repo. Nothing unusual and everything works as expected.

Now, I'm having problems with log4j2 and I clone log4j2 project and open it in NetBeans to see what is wrong there. From this time NB uses cloned log4j2 project as a maven dependency for MyProject.

I don't want to build and install cloned log4j2 project. And I don't want NB to use it as a maven dependency. Could anyone say if it is possible to make NB deattach cloned log4j2 project from maven dependencies. By other words I want NB to use log4j2 dependencies from local maven repo. How to do it?
