well it depends. You say you don't have control over the build file - does that mean no control at all ? You can do a lot with properties and conditionals and you could also write a build file that calls the other one with specific targets - like :
<nant buildfile="build-I-don't-control.build" target="foo"


However if you are looking to exclude specific tasks within targets and changing the buildfile isn't an option then xslt should do the job as a translation mechanism

I would like to filter tasks in an NAnt build file so that some tasks
are not processed when NAnt is run. For example, say you have some
<cvs> and <copy> tasks, but you don't want them to execute each time
NAnt runs. The constraint is that you don't have control over the NAnt
build file; somebody else has ownership of that file. What would be
the best way to do this?

I'm thinking about filtering using XSLT, but not if there's a better way.

Thanks!
