[GRADLE-1574] transitive = false should produce excludes for each dependency in POM Created: 26/May/11  Updated: 29/Mar/16  Resolved: 29/Mar/16

Status: Resolved
Project: Gradle
Affects Version/s: 1.0-milestone-3
Fix Version/s: 2.14-rc-1

Type: Bug

 Description   

Using transitive = false produces incorrect poms because excludes are not added to the POM for all deps.

Unfortunately, maven doesn't support wildcards (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3832) so an explicit exclude is going to be needed for all deps.

FYI we implemented this is the Grails release plugin by resolving dependencies without excludes (and without downloading jars) and then generating the POM based on the metadata:

A similar solution is needed for Gradle's uploadArchives / POM generation task

We just hit this one, too. Graeme's solution looks fine - any chance to get this in the next release?

https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/484 provides a patch for this issue. With appropriate integration test coverage we should be able to merge the PR and fix this issue.
