Resolution: Duplicate
> Easily disable / exclude transitive dependencies
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-2031
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2031
> Project: Maven 2
> Type: New Feature
> Components: Dependencies
> Versions: 2.0.2
> Reporter: Guillaume Nodet
> Assignee: Carlos Sanchez
> Priority: Critical
>
>
> Transitive dependencies are cool, however, the limitations are very difficult
> to work around.
> * specification dependencies
> * jarjar dependencies (spring.jar includes all spring-xxx.jar, so no need
> to include them)
> * remove warning on relocations for transitive dependencies (it's always
> difficult to tell users: that's not an error, and we can not do anything)
> * poms on ibiblio are all in m2 and never change
> * exclusions for transitive deps can be overriden if manually included
> One cool feature would be to allow disabling transitive dependencies in the
> following ways:
> * disable all transitive deps
> * enable transitive dependencies only for modules of the same project
> * enable transitive deps for specific groupIds
> * disable transitive deps for specific groupIds
> * have a tag/attribute to exclude all transitive deps for one dependency
> (instead of having list all exclusions)
