Description

It would be very nice to have an option to "grab" dependent jars from a specified (or configured) local path. This would help to include private dependencies within scripts in bigger setups (nested pipelines) and to get rid of user specific grape configurations due to private artifactories.

Example:
@Grab( '/foo/bar/x.jar' )

Unfortunately, I have no clue how much effort this would need to implement.
