Add global/ubiquitous excludes to assembly and component descriptors
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-586
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-586
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Lars Corneliussen
Especially when composing assembly descriptors from multiple components, it
would be good to be able to define excludes, that have global effect on all
descriptors. The files and folders excluded globally "do just no exist". For
example, if I want to be sure, "**/target/**" is ignored, I want to make sure
that this is valid for ALL defined files and filesets.
The easiest way would be to to inject those into all fileSets after (while
respecting basedirs).
If you like the idea, I'm happy to provide a patch.
