The layout of the Cassandra directory makes this difficult (there's source files in different locations and build/generated files in numerous places. Problem with variations that are friendly is that we go back to letting files slip through, getting committed without the license header and being the release manager's headache. Would including a user-based global {{~/.gitignore}} be a way we could get around this? e.g. {code} git config --global core.excludesFile '~/.gitignore' {code} Another idea, and i'm brain-storming quickly, is an easy way to skip the rat-check. e.g. either file-based or property based. was (Author: michaelsembwever): [~benedict], i tried a number of approaches.
