> I have a base-war project which I'd like to overlay into my project-war. To avoid filename conflicts I use <targetPath>, but the result is project//targetPath/WEB-INF/... and I don't really want the WEB-INF in there. I came across this posting with the same issue: http://www.coderanch.com/t/447258/Ant-Maven-Other-Build-Tools/Maven-war-dependencies-moving-files.
> I also tried an assembly approach, but this also includes WEB-INF. Other ideas could include using the dependency plugin, antrun-plugin, cargo plugin or some other option? However, I would like to use jetty now that it is supporting overlays http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JETTY-1027.
> Perhaps some mechanism like this could be added:
> under <includes> or <include>
>   <excludePathPrefix>/WEB-INF/</excludePathPrefix> <!-- ignores the prefix given -->
>   <excludePath>true</excludePath> <!-- copies only the filename -->
