rschmitt opened a new pull request, #779: URL: https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/pull/779
During local development, I'm regularly annoyed by spurious RAT failures. While RAT does have some limitations -- for example, because it never shells out to `git`, it can't ignore untracked files -- newer versions do have improved support for `.gitignore` files, including the global gitignore file when present at `~/.config/git/ignore` (the default location). Additionally, the default exclusions have been improved, so we no longer need quite as much manual configuration. Specific changes: 1. Bumped `apache-rat-plugin` directly to 0.17. (In the version of the Apache parent POM we are using, there is no property we can override to do this.) 2. Removed exclusions that are obsolete or covered by our defaults. 3. Changed `apache-rat:check` to only run in `:httpclient5-parent`, instead of separately validating each subproject. 4. Changed `<exclude>` to `<inputExclude>` as the former is now deprecated. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
