 By using picocli in source form, you can avoid having an external dependency on picocli.
-Picocli has only one source file: link:https://github.com/remkop/picocli/blob/v4.7.6/src/main/java/picocli/CommandLine.java[CommandLine.java].
+Picocli has only one source file: link:https://github.com/remkop/picocli/blob/v4.7.7-SNAPSHOT/src/main/java/picocli/CommandLine.java[CommandLine.java].
 This facilitates including picocli in your project: simply copy and paste the code of this file into a file called `CommandLine.java`, add it to your project, and enjoy!
