Re: [hibernate-dev] PSA: Maven users, upgrade to Maven 3.6.3 if you can

Hello, Just to warn you there are bugs in Maven 3.6.1 and below impacting the resolution of transitive dependencies when your direct dependencies rely on exclusions or dependency management. In practice, I don't think it's very dangerous, as Maven has algorithms that resolve conflicting dependencies whenever they arise. Not great to rely on these, but they work most of the time. However, it's bound to cause some headaches, as I recently discovered thanks to Fabio: the maven-enforcer-plugin was (wrongly) detecting a dependency convergence issue with Maven 3.6.1 and below, just because the dependency management of one of our dependencies was being ignored. So there is no rush, but for your own good, I recommend that you upgrade your machine and CI jobs to Maven 3.6.3, and maybe even set the minimum required version of Maven to 3.6.2 (the first version that fixes the bug) in your POM. The CI already uses Maven 3.6.3 by default for all jobs configured with Maven 3.6. Jobs configured with Maven 3.5 or below will be affected by the bug.
