Mmm, two things of note: 1) As has been mentioned, I'm fairly sure you can fix on a given dependency. 2) Changes to upstream libraries trigger tests on consumers of that library, so breaking changes tend not to happen.

>Changes to upstream libraries trigger tests on consumers of that library, so breaking changes tend not to happen. This doesn't prevent build breaking changes, it just makes the team using the library aware what is broken and they can have fix ready when they want to upgrade their dependencies.

  Afaik you cannot submit code that breaks any test in the repo. I mean, there are ways to force it, but unless it's a special case you really don't want to.

  Judging by the downvotes, obviously some people have no idea how maintaining libraries work.
