 Description   

The Ivy Publishing plugin does not take into account the transitive attribute declared for a dependency when generating the publishing metadata. The problem can be exposed with the following sample project:

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'ivy-publish'

group = 'org.gradle'
version = '1.0'

dependencies {
    compile "commons-dbcp:commons-dbcp:1.4", {
        transitive = false
    }
}

publishing {
   publications {
       ivy(IvyPublication) {
           from components.java
       }
   }
   
   repositories {
       ivy { 
           url "file://${buildDir}/repo" 
       }
   }
}

The result is a ivy.xml file containing the following dependency declaration for commons-dbcp:commons-dbcp:1.4:

<dependencies>
    <dependency org="commons-dbcp" name="commons-dbcp" rev="1.4" conf="runtime-&gt;default"/>
</dependencies>

The expected metadata should declare the attribute transitive="false" according to Ivy's behavior.
