Paul Benedict updated MNG-3196:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: Issues to be reviewed for 3.x)
> Allow exclusion of a certain transitive dependency across all direct
> dependencies.
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3196
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3196
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 2.0.7
> Reporter: Paul Gier
>
> I would like to be able to put exludes at the top level of dependencies so
> that it can easily be excluded from all transitive dependencies, instead of
> just excluding it from a single dependency at a time. For example assume
> that project1 and project2 both have transitive dependencies on different
> versions of project-trans:
> {code:xml}
> <dependencies>
> <exclusions>
> <exclusion>
> <groupId>com.stuff</groupId>
> <artifactId>project-trans</artifactId>
> </exclusion>
> </exclusions>
> <dependency>
> <groupId>com.stuff</groupId>
> <artifactId>project1</artifactId>
> <version>1.0</version>
> <dependency>
> <dependency>
> <groupId>com.stuff</groupId>
> <artifactId>project2</artifactId>
> <version>1.0</version>
> <dependency>
> </dependencies>
> {code}
> In this example, the "project-trans" dependency would be exluded from both
> project1 and project2. It can be difficult to find all the locations of a
> transitively included dependency for a large project that has a large number
> of frequently changing dependencies.
