scott comer commented on RAT-2:
-------------------------------
what's ok for the maven plugin and ant tasks would be nice for the command line
tool. perhaps all would benefit from a command line or task configured
exclusion file, part of the project (.rat_config?), which would list patterns
or exact files to exclude. here's my list (from the etch project):
.project - eclipse meta data.
.classpath - eclipse meta data.
BUILD.txt - directions on how to build.
**/*.txt - these are usually notes about how to build or status. doesn't seem
to merit a license.
**/*.properties - settings, hardly any intellectual property here, eh?
**/*.sln - visual studio meta data.
**/*.csproj - visual studio meta data.
**/*.vcproj - visual studio meta data.
**/*.snk - visual studio dll signing key
