Dan Dumont commented on RAT-190:
--------------------------------
Running mvn apache-rat:check will pass on the test project.
The rat will correctly fail the build if you remove the excludes block,
however, when you keep the excludes block and you run with -X for debug, you'll
see the file in question as "included".
Very strange.
