Gradle, How To Disable All Transitive Dependencies

dependencies, gradle, transitive-dependency

Solution

I ended up using:

configurations.all {
    transitive = false
}

Problem

Many of my jars have conflicting transitive dependencies (multiple spring versions). I would like to avoid inherited version conflicts by managing all of my dependencies explicitly, is it possible to disable all transitive dependencies in Gradle? I know I can add `transitive = false` to each of my dependencies, but I am hoping there is a simpler way. ``` compile(group: 'org.springframework', name: 'spring', version: '2.5.2') { transitive = false } ```
