Claude Warren updated RAT-332:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 0.17
> --force can cause system error
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: RAT-332
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-332
> Project: Apache Rat
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.16
> Reporter: Claude Warren
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.17
>
>
> If an add license run is executed without the --force then a set of *.new
> files are created.
> If the same command is run again with the "–force" option the system will
> overwrite the old .new file and then move it to the "*" file name, later the
> system will look for the *.new to modify.
>
> For example:
> First run
> foo.md creates foo.md.new
>
> second run:
> foo.md overwrites foo.md.new and then moves foo.md.new to foo.md
> foo.md.new is now missing and the system errors and stops.
>
> System should remove foo.md.new from the list of files to process when foo.md
> is processed under a --force flag.
