As below shows, Why janusgraph publish so many minor version instead of snapshot verson? I have a project depending on janusgraph and receive dependabot PR update on janusgraph so frequent! Isn't it kind of abuse?

To be fair, isn't dependabot rather than JanusGraph that's "abusing"? :)

You may want to try this: https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuring-dependabot-version-updates#disabling-dependabot-version-updates

As to your original question: JanusGraph publishes a minor version per commit because JanusGraph community does not have enough bandwidth to do (relatively) frequent official releases (we do it roughly once a year). To make users able to use latest features & bug fixes, a CI/CD process is configured so that every commit is published on maven.
