Description

Since the `pivy-importer` needs to run as a step before the repositories are resolved the only place that this can happen is as a step inside of your `buildSrc` project.

`pivy-importer` could be wrapped up as a gradle plugin so that it downloads dependencies when the `buildSrc` project is being built. This means that when you update your dependencies you don't need to make sure that every developer also runs the `pivy-importer` gradle would do that for you.

Research direction

The issue concerns integrating pivy-importer into the buildSrc project as a Gradle plugin. Start by tracing how pivy-importer currently runs and how buildSrc is built; done means dependency updates trigger the importer automatically during the build. No source files or tests are named.
