Michael Vorburger created MPOM-163:
--------------------------------------
Summary: apache-rat-plugin exclude .checkstyle file created by
Eclipse Checkstyle plugin
Key: MPOM-163
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-163
Project: Maven POMs
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Michael Vorburger
I had trouble with the apache-rat-plugin enforced by the ASF Parent POM because
it stumbled upon and did not like the the .checkstyle files which by the
Eclipse Checkstyle plugin (see http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net) unfortunately
creates at the root of every (Eclipse) project (= artifact).
FYI: These .checkstyle are normally on .gitignore. (PS: What would be really
cool would be if the apache-rat-plugin was smart enough to ignore files that
are in .gitignore...)
Perhaps you'd be open to adding this file to the excludes of the
apache-rat-plugin in the ASF Parent POM? I'll send you a pull request with a
suggestion (if PR on GH are acceptable; else plz clarify how to contribute; FYI
am ASF member).
In the mean time, it's easy enough to work around using {{-Drat.skip}} - once
you understood what it's not happy about.. ;-)
