If I see a public const val kotlin_stdlib_jdk8: String = "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:_" in Libs.kt, how do I know which version from version.properties will be used to replace the _? Do I first have to search for <http://version.org|version.org>_jetbrains_kotlin..kotlin_stdlib_jdk8 and then - if that does not exist - look for variations like <http://version.org|version.org>_jetbrains_kotlin or version.kotlin_stdlib_jdk8 or version.kotlin ? And do I know which if these will be used if they all exist but have different values?

generally refreshVersions with put #unused on entries that are not used by any dependency ./. not sure how realiably it works

and ideally for kotlin and other popular dependencies there is rules setup to have them point to a single entry eg. version.kotlin

@jmfayard would it be possible.. (or does it exist and i just overlooked it) to add a task like inpectRefreshversionDependency that you feed with a dependency notation and it tells you what versionKey it resolves to ?

In cases that's not obvious, I would do gradlew dependencies --scan and open the dependencies tab to see how it's resolved
