This change removes the need for other projects that package this dependency (e.g.
strimzi/strimzi-kafka-operator
) to explicitly exclude thespotbug-annotations
fromkafka-quotas-plugin
dependency in their poms.spotbugs-annotations
is a test-time dependency, but due to the mechanics of how it operates it is declared as compile time dependency which causes it to be automatically transitively pulled in when this project is referenced as a dependency of another project. By making itprovided
scoped it is still present at compile time so it can perform its function during testing but it will not automatically be pulled into the using projects as a transitive dependency.
