 Execute this command in a sample directory:
 
 ```bash
-./gradlew run --args="1.6.8 2.2.2 <Optional repo url, default https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/io/ktor>"
+./gradlew run --args="1.6.8 2.2.2"
 ```
+
+* `1.6.8` and `2.2.2` are the versions of the Maven artifact to compare.
+* By default, the repository URL is https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/io/ktor.
+  If you want to use a repository other than the default, provide it explicitly as the third argument:
+```bash
+./gradlew run --args="2.3.13 3.0.0 https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases/io/ktor"
