----------------------------------------
[~hboutemy] please I don't mean any offense, but after 1.5 years of silence
here (and with a trivial pull request ignored for so long), I actually have no
idea anymore, and no motivatation to pick this up from the dustbin.
> apache-rat-plugin exclude .checkstyle file created by Eclipse Checkstyle
> plugin
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MPOM-163
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-163
> Project: Maven POMs
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: ASF-21
> Reporter: Michael Vorburger
> Priority: Major
>
> I had trouble with the apache-rat-plugin enforced by the ASF Parent POM
> because it stumbled upon and did not like the the .checkstyle files which by
> the Eclipse Checkstyle plugin (see http://eclipse-cs.sourceforge.net)
> unfortunately creates at the root of every (Eclipse) project (= artifact).
> FYI: These .checkstyle are normally on .gitignore. (PS: What would be really
> cool would be if the apache-rat-plugin was smart enough to ignore files that
> are in .gitignore...)
> Perhaps you'd be open to adding this file to the excludes of the
> apache-rat-plugin in the ASF Parent POM? I'll send you a pull request with a
> suggestion (if PR on GH are acceptable; else plz clarify how to contribute;
> FYI am ASF member).
> In the mean time, it's easy enough to work around using {{-Drat.skip}} - once
> you understood what it's not happy about.. ;-)
