We don't do checkstyle as part of default "mvn install" since it takes significant
amount of time (~90sec) and slows builds and development. We only need it for pre-commits.
Do a pass with dependency:analyze; remove unused and
explicity list the dependencies we exploit.
Remove the parent dependencies set which had junit, mockito,
log4j, and findbugs annotations (had to put junit back
temporarily in subsequent version of this patch TODO). Listing in
parent set meant these libs were dependencies for all modules
which in practice was not the case. Edited all modules so
those that need any from this parent set now do explicit listing.
Ran the dependency:analyze over the project. Acted on most
suggested removals and requests for explicit listing. Some
grey areas remain around transitives that come in with
hadoop -needs better excludes, another project- and that
the dependency:analyze tool is not always accurate in its
reporting.
