---------------------------------
Summary: --force can cause system error
Key: RAT-332
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-332
Project: Apache Rat
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.16
Reporter: Claude Warren
If an add license run is executed without the --force then a set of *.new files
are created.
If the same command is run again with the "–force" option the system will
overwrite the old .new file and then move it to the "*" file name, later the
system will look for the *.new to modify.
For example:
First run
foo.md creates foo.md.new
second run:
foo.md overwrites foo.md.new and then moves foo.md.new to foo.md
foo.md.new is now missing and the system errors and stops.
System should remove foo.md.new from the list of files to process when foo.md
is processed under a --force flag.
