## Interface DependencyAdder

-     @Incubating
      @NonExtensible
      public interface DependencyAdder

  A `DependencyAdder` is used to add dependencies to a specific configuration.
  Since:
    7.6
  API Note:
    Gradle has specific extensions to make explicit calls to `add(...)` unnecessary from the DSL.
    - For Groovy DSL, we create `call(...)` equivalents for all the `add(...)` methods.
    - For Kotlin DSL, we create `invoke(...)` equivalents for all the `add(...)` methods.
  Implementation Requirements:
    This interface should not be implemented by end users or plugins.
  Implementation Note:
    Changes to this interface may require changes to the `extension module for Groovy DSL` or `extension functions for Kotlin DSL`.
