How do I use a non-maven project as a resource for my Maven module? [duplicate]

Question

I need to use a non-Maven project (simply a folder with script files) from a remote hg repo as a resource for my Maven project in git. I need to use those files in my Java code.

What is the way to add them to my project it without: - Having to fork a non-maven repo - Having to make that project into Maven project - Having to move either project to a different repo

There must be some Maven plugin that lets adding archives to a project but I just cannot google it.

you want to add them as an archive, let's say a zip or a jar? would that be fine? — A_Di-Matteo

What I needed is maven-scm-plugin that uses execution to clone a project from a different repo:

<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.9.5</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>test</phase> <goals> <goal>checkout</goal> </goals> <configuration> <basedir>${project.build.directory}</basedir> <checkoutDirectory>${project.build.directory}</checkoutDirectory> <connectionUrl>scm:hg:http://link-to-required-repo</connectionUrl> <username>www</username> <password>qqq</password> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>
