@fabiocarvalho777 I would like to take this one. Just one question should we automate the process of upgrading jars or should I manually update it in pom.xml?

What do you mean by "automate the process of upgrading jars"?

What do you mean by "automate the process of upgrading jars"?

If we are using maven 2 or below then we can directly specify in pom to download the latest version of jar files. else we have to find out some way to do the same in maven 3.

Otherwise, last option is to update manually.

Let's just upgrade manually. Otherwise we would have to assume all these jars respect semantic versioning and backward compatibility, which probably is not the case.

@fabiocarvalho777 quick question, can we use this tool to update third-party jars https://github.com/amarlearning/maven-repository-version?
