Hi Christos, I've now revised the initial PR (https://github.com/apache/solr/pull/2646) > and created a clean PR with the changes and version conflict resolution. > See for that https://github.com/apache/solr/pull/2706. The new PR does > not include dependency updates like the initial PR. >
Nice! I think it's a good start. Updates can come later, even one at a time. > Right now, the constraints hold information about the dependencies that > cause the version conflict, so that in the future developers may check the > constraints of the updated dependency for matching constraints and clean it > up if the constraint is no longer necessary. I tried to find an easier or > more automated way to properly maintain the constraints that have been > added, but I couldn't find a better one.

I'm sure one could try to craft something... but it's an uncharted territory for me and it's never been a problem for me to just review them manually. Dawid
