Description
Due to my Eclipse plugins set, when I import a maven project, a .checkstyle file is generated there. As I learned later, RAT 0.13-SNAPSHOT ignores .checkstyle files, so I repeated my tests with a different filename.
If a pattern is explicitly mentioned in the .gitignore in the project folder, RAT does not complain. However, if the pattern is only mentioned in a parent .gitignore, the RAT check fails.
[il@reallin wagon-scm]$ touch .someignoredfile [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ echo .someignoredfile >>../../.gitignore [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ git add .someignoredfile The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files: wagon-providers/wagon-scm/.someignoredfile Use -f if you really want to add them. fatal: no files added [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ mvn apache-rat:check [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.rat:apache-rat-plugin:0.12:check (default-cli) on project wagon-scm: Too many files with unapproved license: 1 See RAT report in: target/rat.txt -> [Help 1] [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ cat target/rat.txt Files with unapproved licenses: .someignoredfile [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ echo .someignoredfile >>.gitignore [il@reallin wagon-scm]$ mvn apache-rat:check [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS
