Pipeline cache grows in size

Question

Hi,I have a Java-Maven build pipeline where I use pipeline caching to restore dependencies.I see after like a month of pipeline usage the cache grows in size. Initially the size is around 1GB but later it crosses 12GB, what I'm concerned is if even if there is a cache miss, dependencies should get overridden , but this is getting appended. As a workaround I'm currently changing the cache key name to version2, version3 etc., so cache will be refreshed. Any insights would be appreciated. TIA&nbsp;Task:&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;task:&nbsp;Cache@2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;displayName:&nbsp;Cache&nbsp;Maven&nbsp;repo&nbsp;on&nbsp;the&nbsp;build&nbsp;pipe&nbsp;line&nbsp;node&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;inputs:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;key:&nbsp;'version1 |&nbsp;maven&nbsp;|&nbsp;"$(Agent.OS)"&nbsp;|&nbsp;**/pom.xml'&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;path:&nbsp;$(Pipeline.Workspace)/.m2/repository
