interesting. I am wondering if we could add an ant target which builds this temporary mega pom. After that we could use `versions-maven-plugin` and call `versions:display-dependency-updates` (it can be configured with a [filter](https://github.com/apache/roller/blob/2deb12060cfb4b980a2075abc5b26a8b526bc0aa/pom.xml#L104) if needed). This could be used by devs via CLI or maybe in manually triggered workflows / jenkins etc. I don't think dependabot will be of much use since it can't translate the upgrade back to NetBeans' own dependency management system. Even if it could, it would cause too many PRs and too much CI load to be feasible in my opinion. NB has so many dependencies (many redundant on a per-module basis) that it wouldn't surprise me to get hundreds of PRs once its turned on. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
