Description

It would be nice to be able to specify a dependency that need to be resolved in standlone mode instead of needing to write an ivy file.

Proposed syntax:
ivy -dependency org module rev

Is equivalent to
ivy -ivy ivy.xml

with ivy.xml:
<ivy-module version="1.0">
<info organisation="org"
module="standalone"
revision="working"
/>
<dependencies>
<dependency org="org" name="module" rev="rev" conf="default->*"/>
</dependencies>
</ivy-module>
