Automated Pull Requests in Maven

Any pom.xml that exists in the repository will be searched. Any pom.xml that is in a src/test directory is ignored.

Note

  • Automated pull requests work only when dependency versions are specified directly (as a value or property).

  • Imported BOMs (for example, <spring-boot-dependencies> with <type>pom</type> and <scope>import</scope>) are not supported.

  • Component defined inside a <dependencies> element with an inline <version> element.

    <dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
    <version>2.9.9.3</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

  • Component defined inside a <dependencyManagement> element with an inline <version> element.

    <dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
      <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
      <version>2.9.9.3</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

  • Component defined inside either an <dependencies> element, or a <dependencyManagement> element, with the version defined via a variable in a <properties> section.

    <properties>                                                                                                                                                                                                 
  <jackson.version>2.9.9.3</jackson.version>
</properties>
