You could define a <property> "custom.version" in your settings.xml or
POM and have your dependency be of the form:
<groupId>a</groupId>
<artifactId>b</artifactId>
<version>${custom.version}</version>
This way, you could change the value of custom.version whenever you
want, and the POM will pick up the right version of the dependency.
