You can setup a base project with your dependency and use it for the rest of 
your projects as "master" making sure you are pulling it with its dependencies.

Ex:
        Project Master will depend on spring/commons.
        Project A will depend on Master hence will inherit spring/commons.

Subject: /ivy-module/dependencies/include exists?

in ivy.xml, I would like to be able to share dependencies across several 
internal modules.  For example, they all use, say, commons-logging and 
guice.  I don't want to have to configure, for example, the 'rev' in n 
different places.  I want to specify the version in one place and have 
them all use that version.

The solution I am using now is to put the versions for various 3rd party 
libs in a properties file, and using <properties> in my ivy settings file.

But I would love to be able to <include> an external <dependency> file, 
much like I am currently <include>'ing a <configuration> file which 
specifies the various <conf>s and 'defaultconfmapping'.

Please reply to me, I am not subscribed to this list.

thx!
