Hello
I'm contributing to Apache Allura incubating project, where my efforts
are mostly focused on getting a release out. I've attempted a RAT
testing, but it gives me an error when I try to use -E option:
~ $: java -jar ../apache-rat-0.8/apache-rat-0.8.jar -E ./.rat-ignore -d ./
Exception in thread "main" java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException:
Dangling meta character '*' near index 0

Do I miss something? I've modelled the file after examples given at
