Properties to deactivate the transitive mode of a dependency
------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1218
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1218
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: New Feature
    Versions: 2.0-beta-3    
 Environment: windows
 Reporter: Alexandre Vivien
     Fix For: 2.0


Somes dependencies in the central repository of Maven 2 cause some troubles due 
to the transitive mode. In fact, there are bad dependencies referred in their 
<dependency>.pom in the repository. By bad dependencies, you should understand 
dependencies that don't exist in the central repository, so the m2 build stop, 
or dependencies that don't really needed (like httpunit, etc ...) which 
polluate the WAR.
So, it must be clever to add a dependency property to deactivate the transitive 
mode, like
<dependency>
...
 <transitive>false</transitive>
</dependency>

Thanks,
Alexandre Vivien
