Philipp Ottlinger updated RAT-171:
----------------------------------
Description:
The apache-rat-plugin ignores by default the .gitignore files. However, for
every file/pattern added to those files, an explicit exclusion must be set in
the plugin's configuration.
Given that git-ignored files won't be uploaded to the SCM and shouldn't be part
of a release, it would be nice that the apache-rat-plugin automatically
considered those git-ignored files as implicit exclusions.
h3. Example usage
Either configure parsing SCM ignore files by a environment variable
{code}
mvn -U -debug -Drat.parseSCMIgnoresAsExcludes=true
{code}
or in your configuration section of apache-rat-maven plugin
{code}
<parseSCMIgnoresAsExcludes>true</true>
This features is enabled by default.

As if now this feature is not enabled by default.
