missing branch attribute in resolved ivy file
I have several different modules each with their own independent branching schemes. I have setup module specific settings in my settings file to specify which branch of which module to use. The problem is in the published modules ivy files. These resolved ivy files do not specify which branch of which module was used in the dependency section. It just lists the name and revision of each dependent module. I want to know which branch was used for each dependent module.
I guess my question is why doesn't the deliver task populate the branch attribute for dependencies in the resolved ivy files? How would someone be able to trace back the history of a given module build without knowing which branch the dependencies came from?

I guess the answer is that we simply forgot this case. I think it really
makes sense to populate the branch as soon as it's not the default one (I
mean Ivy default). You can open a bug in JIRA.
