Assuming the plugin has been released, you have two options: 1. Specify the plugin version in your pom. 2. Use the "full" name of the plugin on the command line: mvn groupId:artifactId:version:goal eg mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.0-alpha-5:tree
Unfortunately, this plugin version is still in development, so this is not sufficient. You can see the latest versions here: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-dependency-plugin/ If you must use this new version, you will need to add the Apache snapshot repo to your pom or settings.xml, or pull the code from SVN and build/install it locally.
