I don't know what you're talking about - as that phrase isn't  
mentioned anywhere in that document.

We don't. PAR isn't a recommended deployment method these days.

No. This idea of a PAR file is that it contains all the dependencies  
already.

The recommended solution is to build a local::lib with all your  
dependencies in, and keep this in revision control / ship it with the  
rest of your application.
