[jira] [Commented] (MASSEMBLY-849) Add nonFilteredFileExtensions to avoid filtering of binary files

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-849?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16498441#comment-16498441 ] 

Brian Brooks commented on MASSEMBLY-849:
----------------------------------------

+1 just wasted a couple of days dealing with an EXE corrupted by maven-assembly-plugin filtering a binary file.  Seems like filtering binaries should be off bey default and require explicit configuration to enable such filtering.  What is the use case for filtering a binary file?

> nonFilteredFileExtensions should be added to assembly-plugin similar to the param that exists in resources-plugin: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/examples/binaries-filtering.html
> Currently I have to double the fileSets with includes/excludes and filtered true/false.
