Hi.

My situation is like this:

I have many projects each one with its own ivy.xml.
I see that many of them share the same dependency.

Do you think it makes sense to support dependency-import from a common
ivy.xml fragment file?


Some kind of Ivy file inheritance as with pom inheritance?  It makes sense,
and may allow us to reach a better level of compatibility with m2. What I
wouldn't like to see however is such imports in published ivy files. IMO ivy
files in the repository should be self contained.

To be specific, I use the 2.2 use case as described here:
http://wiki.apache.org/ivy/IvyUseCase
Each project has the dependency on the same properties file.

Is there a way not to duplicate the dependency code across all ivy.xmlfiles
in all the projects?
