Mark Hobson commented on MASSEMBLY-414:
---------------------------------------

Note that this somewhat contradicts:

> Allow regular expressions in include/exclude patterns for filesets

> In certain cases, it's very difficult to accomplish the right blend of 
> inclusions and exclusions for fileSets. For instance, if a project contains 
> ${basedir}/target and ${basedir}/src/site/resources/examples/target/blah, and 
> also contains child modules with similar constructs, it can be next to 
> impossible to include all of the legit sources for the project structure 
> while at the same time excluding the target directories generated during a 
> build.
> With regex and negative-lookahead, we could handle this case. Therefore, we 
> should provide some syntax for embedding a regular expression in an 
> include/exclude pattern. This will help the assembly plugin to generate a 
> release source bundle for ASF projects.
