             Summary: Transform transitive=false to wildcards exclusion
                 Key: IVY-1470
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1470
             Project: Ivy
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Maven Compatibility
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0-RC1
            Reporter: Stevo Slavic


In Apache Ivy, one can declare a dependency and exclude all of its transitive dependencies with {{transitive}} attribute set to {{false}}. E.g. this feature is used a lot in Apache Zookeeer, an Ivy based build. Currently (Ivy 2.4.0-rc1) Maven pom file generated for such Ivy built project (e.g. zookeeper 3.4.6) does not reflect in any way that all transitive dependencies for a given dependency are excluded, even though Maven supports this feature (find more info on exclusions in Maven in [docs|http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Exclusions] and [JIRA ticket|http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3832])

Please support in makepom task transformation from Ivy's transitive=false to Maven's wildcards exclusion.
