This change adds a plugin to generate and search dependency graphs with sbt. This is useful when we see errors caused by transitive dependencies, so we can work out which libraries we directly specify pull these in.
[x] Check out this repository and run one of the graph generation commands e.g. dependencyBrowseTreeHTML, (after selecting the items project sbt project items.
How can we measure success?
It's easier for people working on this project to solve issues with dependencies.
Have we considered the potential risks?
This change enables a plugin that is part of sbt post version 1.4 and should not impact the build, so risks are minimal.
