The whole point is to only remove -SNAPSHOT from dependencies _which have
actually been released_
If we remove -SNAPSHOT from dependencies which have not been released then
we'd break your build.
And versions:set is more magic than you think....
if you have the following structure
/pom.xml
foo/pom.xml
bar/pom.xml
manchu/pom.xml
foo-manchu/pom.xml
and foo-manchu depends on bar
if you change directory into /foo/bar and run mvn versions:set
-DnewVersion=2.0
then versions plugin will (by default or via a property, I forget) dance up
the directory tree for as long as there are aggregator pom's until it
reaches the top of the tree... then it will dance down looking for all
projects that depend on bar:oldVersion and update them to the newVersion.
