             Summary: AirflowException on repeated dependencies prevents 
automated dependencies
                 Key: AIRFLOW-4070
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-4070
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Newton Le
            Assignee: Newton Le


We are trying to build automated dependencies based on data. For example, if 
Task A requires data from Task B, then a task dependency will be automatically 
generated. At the same time, we still want to allow users to specify explicit 
dependencies, e.g. `task_a >> task_b`.

Airflow's current way of raising an exception on duplicate dependencies 
currently blocks this implementation. Also, I can't think of a good 
justification for it. For the purposes I can imagine, logging a warning seems 
more than sufficient.
