Description

When your pom have a lot of dependencies, it is difficult to know if a double entry is declared. This new goal should analyze the pom.xml (i.e. the model) and list the duplicate dependencies presents in the <dependencies/> and <dependencyManagement/> tags.

  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-plugin-api</artifactId>
      <version>${maven.version}</version>
    </dependency>
...
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-plugin-api</artifactId>
      <version>${maven.version}</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
