-------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow skipping execution entirely
                 Key: RAT-164
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-164
             Project: Apache Rat
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs


In some outlier cases, it'd be useful to skip execution of the rat plugin 
entirely. Notably, when scripting a `git bisect`, the extra 3 seconds or so it 
takes to run can really add up. Simply ignoring errors (setting 
rat.ignoreErrors=true) is insufficient in these cases.

It should be pretty easy to check the "rat.skip" system property and run only 
if it is not set to "false" or "0".
