What is the best way to include a third party jar in to AEM bundle?

Question

I have seen somewhere in the forum people recommend to use the maven scope system. if I include my jar location(local maven repo path) in the system path and embed that in the pom, the jar will be embedded in the AEM bundle and it would work fine. If I commit that code in the GIT other developers will need to change the repo path location corresponding to the local. Is that a good approach? Or do we have a recommended practice for this?

Sharing a blog which explains how to use Third-party bundles when:

Hosted in restricted Maven repo
Local repo (i.e. when maven repositories cannot be used)

It also covers the configs needed for deployment via Cloud manager
