Gradle 2.5: Changed behaviour of Dependency Resolve Rules when replacing a project dependency with a dependency on the same module version

Digging a bit deeper, it seems like this only applies when you have a rule that attempts to replace a project dependency with exactly the same dependency coordinates, using DependencyResolveDetails.useTarget().

In your example you are doing this with details.useTarget(details.requested):

configurations.all { Configuration conf ->
  conf.resolutionStrategy { ResolutionStrategy rs ->
    rs.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
      details.useTarget(details.requested)
    }
  }
}

So I think we just need to add back a check so that if you specify the exact project coordinates in details.useTarget(), we retain the existing project dependency.
