I would like to change the location of the .m2 folder where leiningen stores all dependencies (on Linux).

Is it possible to achieve this?

Answer 1

For leiningen v2:

Put a profiles.clj in ./users/name/.lein (or Linux equivalent) containing the following

{:user  {;Location of local repository 
         :local-repo "Drive/Path"
         ;Location of locally installed jars
         ;(that can't be downloaded from public repo's)
         :repositories  {"local" {:url "file://Drive/Path"
                                  :releases {:checksum :ignore}}}}}

This user profile is merged with ALL project profiles during lein execution.

A good place to find information like this is the annotated sample profile on lein's github.
