Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-16558:
----------------------------------------------
bq. Then I am concerned we will have failing builds more often.
They would not fail due to untracked files on CI machines, though.
bq. The rat check is important if we want to keep our trunk always ready for a
release to be cut.
This is a good point, and perhaps reducing the execution frequency for
rat-check is not the right approach, but I think we'll have continual problems
trying to exclude everything via .gitignore, especially when rat uses ant-style
globs, meaning we don't have a universal .gitignore format.
Ideally, rat-check would only check tracked files. Is there anything we can do
to narrow its scope?
