Request for patch release of versions-maven-plugin

[nithinasokan]

Hello - is there a possibility of a release that includes maven-common-artifact-filters@3.3.2 ? This version of maven-common-artifact-filters includes a fix that can gracefully handle cases when there are no pattern matches.

Sample command

mvn versions:use-dep-version -DdepVersion=1.0.1 '-Dincludes=com.example:module::*-SNAPSHOT'

pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.example</groupId>
    <artifactId>module</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Expected:
Version remains unchanged
Actual:
Fails with NullPointerException

You can try override dependencies for plugin as workaround, like:

<plugin>
  <artifactId>versions-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  ....
    <dependencies>
       <dependency>
              <groupId>org.apache.maven.shared</groupId>
              <artifactId>maven-common-artifact-filters</artifactId>
              <version>3.3.2</version>
        </dependency>
   </dependencies>
<plugin>
