Robert Scholte commented on MNG-5600:
-------------------------------------

It looks like the provided patch is incorrect (which might be why we didn't 
included it in any Maven release yet). 
Based on the integration-test it seems to exclude direct dependencies (as if 
you would exclude one of the managed spring modules as described in the 
description).
I can't predict the impact, so we might need to delay this for a future pom 
version.

> Dependency management import should support exclusions.

> suppose i have a multi-module project that uses spring, and so have this in 
> dependency-managements in a parent pom:
> {code:xml}
> <dependency>
>       <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
>       <artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
>       <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
>       <type>pom</type>
>       <scope>import</scope>   
> </dependency>
> {code}
> spring artifacts (or at least a lot of them) have a dependency on 
> commons-logging. right now, if i want to exclude commons-logging i have to 
> add an exclusion to every spring dependency in every module of my project, 
> which is actually more XML overall than giving up on using the bom dependency 
> altogether and listing all spring dependencies with excludes once in the 
> parent dependency management.
> I'd like to be able to do this:
> {code:xml}
> <dependency>
>       <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
>       <artifactId>spring-framework-bom</artifactId>
>       <version>${org.springframework.version}</version>
>       <type>pom</type>
>       <scope>import</scope>
>       <exclusions>
>               <exclusion>
>                       <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
>                       <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
>               </exclusion>
>       </exclusions>
> </dependency>
> {code}
