This repository just contains a bunch of versions of the Maven dependency test:x that allow you to play around with the Maven dependency resolution algorithm. The repository has two parts. The main branch contains the (trivial) code and the logic to package and release the code. The repository branch contains the content of a Maven repository.

To use the repository and its contents, define the following repository in your pom.xml.

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>github</id>
        <url>https://github.com/proksch/a-lot-of-dependencies/raw/repository</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

The repository contains all versions in the range {0..2}.{0..9}.{0..9} of test:x:<version> (i.e., 0.0.0 to 2.9.9). You can import them using

<dependency>
    <groupId>test</groupId>
    <artifactId>x</artifactId>
    <version>...</version>
</dependency>

The examples folder contains several multi-module Maven projects that were created to explore the Maven dependency resolution algorithm and to illustrate various corner cases.
