[jira] [Issue Comment Deleted] (MASSEMBLY-775) Emit WARNING instead of ERROR

Gordon Pettey updated MASSEMBLY-775:
------------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: It's not checking "a path starting with / on a Windows system". Every one of those checks is for the *destination* path. It's checking a path starting with / as the target path in the assembled archive, which is utter nonsense. The zip/tar/whatever file isn't ever going to have "Windows" paths with drive letters in it (and if you supplied one as a target path, I suspect the archiver code is going to barf an exception at you - no need to duplicate a check in the assembly plugin). {{/}} is the appropriate way to specify the root directory of the target archive.)
