There are two options. To run the newest rebar3 possible, rather than 
checking rebar3 into your repository permanently, you can just use the 
S3 link for it and do something like 

    curl https://s3.amazonaws.com/rebar3/rebar3 && chmod +x rebar3

And then call ./rebar3 in your commands for S3. If you cache the 
~/.cache directory, you may want to also call ./rebar3 update.

If the objective is to lock the plugin, you can force-specify a version 
for the plugin on your own terms ({project_plugins, [{Plugin, Version}]} 
-- here I use project_plugins because it will _not_ be fetched by parent 
projects when you put yours as a dependency)


Those are all options that are nicer than checking in (and downloading) 
rebar3 for each project that exists.
