Require Same Versions

This rule enforces that specific dependencies and/or plugins have the same version.

The following parameters are supported by this rule:

• dependencies - an optional list of dependency patterns
• buildPlugins - an optional list of build plugin patterns
• reportPlugins - an optional list of report plugin patterns
• plugins - an optional list of both build and report plugin patterns
• uniqueVersions - if SNAPSHOTs should be compared by their timestamped version or not. Default: false
• sameModuleVersions - if set to true enforces that the current module has the same version as the top level aggregator project. Default: false. Supported since version 3.6.0

Sample Plugin Configuration:

<project>
  [...]
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-enforcer-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.6.0</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>enforce-no-snapshots</id>
            <goals>
              <goal>enforce</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
