Assaf Arkin resolved BUILDR-179.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
We do recommend that you explicitly specify as many dependencies as possible
(see also examples in the documentation), the transitive method is considered
experimental, and it's always a good idea to make sure the generated buildfile
works before modifying or sharing it. So the generate method wouldn't want to
work around the best practice to use an undocumented method to generate a
buildfile that's different from the one use for the basis of our documentation.

> Key: BUILDR-179
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-179
> Project: Buildr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Dependency management
> Affects Versions: 1.3.2
> Reporter: Ittay Dror
>
> The download is to get transitive dependencies however it means that if for
> some reason the download fails (out of date pom.xml, network issues,
> repositories settings), then buildfile is not created.
> what if instead of generating a compile.with #{dependencies}, it will
> generate compile.with transitive(#{dependencies})? then the download and
> resolving will be done when the buildfile is used instead of when generated.
