Hi,
I am trying to add RAT to the REEF incubation project and hit an issue
with excludes. I "borrowed" the following configuration from Hadoop:
---
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.rat</groupId>
<artifactId>apache-rat-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.7</version>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>.gitattributes</exclude>
<exclude>.gitignore</exclude>
<exclude>.git/**/exclude>
<exclude>.idea/**</exclude>
<exclude>target/**</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
---
You can find the full pom.xml here:
https://github.com/markusweimer/incubator-reef/blob/reef-38/pom.xml
However, when I run `mvn rat:check`, I get lots of complaints about
files with missing licensing headers in the .git/ folder, e.g.:
---
!????? .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG
!????? .git/config
!????? .git/description
!????? .git/FETCH_HEAD
---
I tried updating to the latest RAT version (0.10), but that didn't help
either. Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks,
Markus
