-------------------------------------------
Looks like the relevant change is this commit
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/tags/maven-checkstyle-plugin-2.13/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/checkstyle/CheckstyleViolationCheckMojo.java?r1=1618904&r2=1618905&;
> Version 2.13 includes non-source files in checks
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MCHECKSTYLE-252
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-252
> Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.13
> Reporter: Michael Heuer
>
> Updating maven-checkstyle-plugin to version 2.13 and running
> $ mvn site
> now includes non-source files in its checks, e.g.
> COPYING
> COPYING.LESSER
> target/generated-classes/cobertura/cobertura.properties
> While it is rather amusing to have checkstyle complain that COPYING (the text
> of the GNU General Public License) doesn't include a license header, it seems
> that the default source root or one of the other properties new to version
> 2.13 does not have an appropriate default value. The target directory should
> also be excluded by default.
