[jira] [Commented] (RAT-98) Maven RAT report does not document skipped files

["Sebb (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-98?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13753493#comment-13753493 ] 

Sebb commented on RAT-98:
-------------------------

It would be helpful to show the active include and exclude configuration on the report as well; this should be after any defaults have been applied. [The defaults may change between releases, so it is helpful to have the active settings documented.]

For excludes of directory trees, it probably does not make sense to list individual files (there will generally be too many).
It's really only for the more specific excludes where the file names might be useful - the exclude may be too general.

> The Maven RAT report should document which files have been skipped using the <exclude> option.
> Either by listing the configuration details, or better by listing the file names with a marker, e.g. EX to show they were deliberately skipped.
> Note: this only refers to files listed in <exclude> entries, not files which are excluded by default.
