             Summary: Implicit ignores should include git-ignored files
                 Key: RAT-171
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-171
             Project: Apache Rat
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.11
            Reporter: Ignasi Barrera


The apache-rat-plugin ignores by default the .gitignore files. However, for 
every file/pattern added to those files, an explicit exclusion must be set in 
the plugin's configuration.
Given that git-ignored files won't be uploaded to the SCM and shouldn't be part 
of a release, it would be nice that the apache-rat-plugin automatically 
considered those git-ignored files as implicit exclusions.
