Elliotte Rusty Harold updated RAT-318:
--------------------------------------
    Description: 
Typical passing output has 9 lines of text:

[INFO] --- apache-rat-plugin:0.15:check (rat-check) @ maven-shared-utils ---
[INFO] Enabled default license matchers.
[INFO] Will parse SCM ignores for exclusions...
[INFO] Parsing exclusions from /Users/elharo/maven-shared-utils/.gitignore
[INFO] Finished adding exclusions from SCM ignore files.
[INFO] 73 implicit excludes.
[INFO] 8 explicit excludes.
[INFO] 103 resources included
[INFO] Rat check: Summary over all files. Unapproved: 0, unknown: 0, generated: 
0, approved: 101 licenses.

Number of these lines I care about and want to read when I'm scanning build 
logs to figure out why my build failed: zero

Arguably the summary line can be included though I'd really prefer to not see 
even that when there's no problem with the licenses. I certainly don't care 
about the exact number of  includes and excludes. It's unactionable log junk 
that gets in my way. Demote these messages to debug or remove them entirely
