Managing dependencies #188

Hello.

I don't know about you but one of my least favorite part of programming is wasting time chasing down the right dependency magic string with the right version.

There is a cool feature in recent versions of Gradle and Android Studio that are a huge improvment in this area and I wrote a Gradle plugin that makes it easy to leverage them. FYI if that's a topic you are interested in: https://github.com/jmfayard/buildSrcVersions
