[jira] [Created] (MDEP-941) Deprecate dependency:sources in favor of dependency:resolve-sources

Michael Osipov created MDEP-941:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Deprecate dependency:sources in favor of dependency:resolve-sources
                 Key: MDEP-941
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-941
             Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: sources
    Affects Versions: 3.6.1
            Reporter: Michael Osipov
            Assignee: Michael Osipov
             Fix For: 3.7.0


Unfortunately, the goal name does not really depict what the goal is doing, it fact it causes confusion as in MDEP-895. The name should clearly say that it *resolves* sources and does not collect (semantics is imporant). The new goal {{resolve-sources}} is functionally equivalent, but is just more expressive.
