title: Find the first version of an artifact (jar) that contains a class
body: <p>We need to find the first version of a jar which contains a particular class. For eg., if Class A was first packaged into A-1.jar, I need A-1.jar. Problem being Class A would now might have been packaged and versioned multiple times, and maybe at, say, A-3.1.jar. And A-3.1.jar is what I will find on searching, and not A-1.jar. A-1.jar is needed because it may come with less frills, i.e, dependencies. The latest versions may contain dependencies which the working project does not need/cannot have, as it may lead to multiple changes in the project. Is there any dependency tool which can help with this? Thank you!</p>
