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

The latest unreleased version of RAT (0.17-SNAPSHOT) makes significant advances
in filtering files.
Please download and run the "–help" command for a complete list of how to
include/exclude files
The major changes are:
* The inclusion/exclusion that was defined for Maven has been moved to core so
that it is now available across all UIs.
* The ability to include/exclude standard sets of files and read standard
exclusion files (e.g. the standard GIT exclusion will ignore "**/.git/**" and
"**/.gitignore" and will also process all ".gitignore" files in the search
tree)
* The ability to use standard Plexus based include/exclude patterns: (e.g. **,
*, ?) as well a Plexus supported regular expressions (e.g. "%regex[<regex
pattern>]")
* Extensive help update to explain what files are and are not included in the
various include/exclude options.
I would like to close this issue and would appreciate any feedback from you.
