(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.. ;-) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
