Is there a plugin or command-line tool that can list all artifacts in a

which only displays dependencies.
Maven Dependency Browser is no longer maintained and is a GUI. IDE plugins
seem like overkill.
The problem I am trying to solve is to automatically determine which higher
level artifacts need to have their dependencies updated when a lower level
artifact is updated. Extra credit for being as simple and easy-to-use as
dependency:tree. :-)
would the versions plugin do what you want or at least help out? it
will tell you that new versions of artifacts you depend on are
available in your repository.

Andrew, I have started using versions:display-dependency-updates and it
just what I needed! Thanks very much.
Kind regards,
