mccheah opened a new pull request #241: Use gradle-consistent-versions to manage dependencies
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-iceberg/pull/241
 
 
   [gradle-consistent-versions](https://github.com/palantir/gradle-consistent-versions#compalantirconsistent-versions---) is a gradle plugin to ensure every project in your gradle setup uses the same versions of each dependency, which stops subtle hard-to-debug runtime errors from arising.
   
   The workflow is you:
   
   1. Define what versions you want in `versions.props`
   2. Run `./gradlew --write-locks` to write the entire dependency list (including transitives) to `versions.lock`.
   
   This `versions.lock` file gives you a bird's eye view of all version numbers in your repo. The plugin also means you can use a slightly more vanilla style of declaring dependencies. One also no longer  needs any intermediate variable names. All dependencies can be declared with the following format, no version number needed:
   
   ```
   dependencies {
      implementation 'com.google.guava:guava'
   }
   ```
   You can read more about it [here](https://github.com/palantir/gradle-consistent-versions#compalantirconsistent-versions---).
