  - because
```
DependencySubstitutions.Substitution because(java.lang.String reason)
```
    Specify a reason for the substitution. This is optional
    
    Parameters:
    
    reason - the reason for the selection
    
    Returns:
    
    the substitution

  - withClassifier
```
DependencySubstitutions.Substitution withClassifier(java.lang.String classifier)
```
    Specifies that the substituted target dependency should use the specified classifier. This method assumes that the target dependency is a jar (type jar, extension jar).
    
    Since:
    
    6.6
  - withoutClassifier
```
DependencySubstitutions.Substitution withoutClassifier()
```
    Specifies that the substituted dependency mustn't have any classifier. It can be used whenever you need to substitute a dependency which uses a classifier into a dependency which doesn't. This method assumes that the target dependency is a jar (type jar, extension jar).
    
    Since:
    
    6.6
  - withoutArtifactSelectors
```
DependencySubstitutions.Substitution withoutArtifactSelectors()
```
    Specifies that substituted dependencies must not carry any artifact selector.
    
    Since:
    
    6.6
  - using
```
DependencySubstitutions.Substitution using(ComponentSelector notation)
```
    Specify the target of the substitution. This is a replacement for the prior #with(ComponentSelector) method which supports chaining.
