removing transitive dependencies from dependencies list - #1547

Do we really want that? Is it needed?

(I mean probably want that - but what are we breaking currrently?)

I guess it's more of a completeness thing than anything else. it declutters the output, and makes the dependency list that is generated by paket the same as nuget.

in a project of any size, (and I have a few at work), the depency list is relatively large. a good chunk of these dependencies are transitive. it leads to larger lock files I guess, and I need to justify the difference to the people I work under ;-)

ok will look into it

Could you please review b014e55 and 11a4308? Thanks

all looks good. just ran master against my solution here, and it worked as expected.

Do we influence the packaged dlls with it? I mean for packages that don't use dependencies but bundle their stuff we still need to package all deps. Otherwise that would create a bug right?

that code just has an impact on the dependencies list, not on the packaged dlls
