Description

See RAT-246.

Due to my Eclipse plugins set, when I import a maven project, a .checkstyle file is generated there. This breaks building maven-scm. target/rat.txt mentions:

Files with unapproved licenses:
.checkstyle file.

Rat 0.13 will ignore .checkstyle by default, but it's not released yet.
