Add the ability to specify source exclusions
--------------------------------------------

         Key: MPECLIPSE-117
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPECLIPSE-117
     Project: maven-eclipse-plugin
        Type: New Feature

    Reporter: James Mitchell
    Priority: Minor
 Attachments: srcExclusions-patch.zip

When source files contain scm information (**/.svn/** or **/CVS/**), which is 
pretty much a given, there's currently no way to specify that those directories 
be excluded except through the GUI.  This isn't so much of a problem except 
that the next time a change is needed and this plugin is ran, it will overwrite 
this exclusion and will force me to exclude it, by hand, again.

The above case is the driving reason why I decided to get involved and help 
out.  So, I have written everything (I think) that is needed for this 
enhancement including, adding to the javadoc, creating a new test that verifies 
this enhancement, and fully testing this with my own projects (many of them @ 
Struts).  If there is anything else I need to do as far as site documentation, 
please tell me where it is and I'll add it.

This is my first patch to Maven.  If this sucks, please don't ignore it, just 
say 'it sucks, no thanks" and I'll go about working on something else.

Thanks so much for your attention.
