Benjamin Bentmann commented on MCLEAN-38:
-----------------------------------------
Not sure whether we really need this extra complexity. With the fix for
MCLEAN-33, one could simply exclude the default directories from cleaning and
employ the {{filesets}} parameter instead which already provides
includes/excludes.
Also, I am not in favor of specifying the includes/excludes all in one simple
string given that these patterns are usually provided by means of a real
collection. That is to say, the usage would become inconsistent IMHO.
Can you elaborate more on your specific use case?
