Description

The documentation at this repo says this is a plugin for sbt 13.0. Earlier versions of this plugin worked for earlier versions of sbt, and there should be no reason to require sbt 13.0, even Martin Odersky's course on coursera recommends 12.0. It currently takes guesswork to find an earlier version of this plugin that works for 12.0, and the documentation should rather point in the right direction to avoid excessive guesswork.
