> Plugins and build dependencies are both subject to the same resolution of transitive dependencies. This is problematic when plugins require newer dependencies than the build, or vice versa. [This issue|https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/MJF-251] in Atlassian's jgit-flow plugin is an example where the plugin fails whenever the application depends transitively on {{xerces}}.
> It should be possible to separate dependencies required for running the build from the dependencies required for the actual build.
