Where would a CI server retrieve dependencies from, if not either over the network, or from within the repository? Do you keep a module / library cache on the CI server itself? In other words, what do supply as input to your CI process, besides a Git URL?

In a local nexus/nuget repository in the intranet, for sure I'm not allowing internet access directly from a CI server.
And apart from the obvious and scary security concerns it is also much faster.

Got it. You can also set up an NPM repository like that, but I don't think that that is commonly done by small dev teams. This does lead to hilarity like the left-pad clusterfork.
