an issue with maven clean plug-in

[Yan Huang]

Hello,

It seems to me that maven clean plug-in doesn't handle "excludes"
configuration well. For example, I have this configuration:

      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-clean-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <filesets>
            <fileset>
              <directory>src</directory>
              <includes>
                <include>**/*.xml</include>
                <include>**/*.sql</include>
              </includes>
              <excludes>
                <exclude>**/*.init.xml</exclude>
              </excludes>
          …</plugin>

My attention is to delete all *.xml file under "src" but leave "*.init.xml"
alone. However, the plug-in removes everything including *.init.xml. Did
anyone encounter the same issue? If so, how did you work around it? using
"antrun" plug-in instead?

Thanks
Yan
