1# Maven clean ignore rules - ignore some Maven dependencies and plugins 2# during the clean phase of a Maven build 3# Format of this file is: 4# [group] [artifact] [type] [version] [classifier] [scope] 5# where each element can be either 6# - the exact string, for example org.apache for the group, or 3.1 7# for the version. In this case, the element is simply matched 8# and left as it is 9# - * (the star character, alone). In this case, anything will 10# match and be left as it is. For example, using * on the 11# position of the artifact field will match any artifact id 12# All elements much match before a rule can be applied 13# Example rule: match jar with groupid= junit, artifactid= junit 14# and version starting with 3., this dependency is then removed 15# from the POM before mvn clean is called 16# junit junit jar s/3\..*/3.x/ 17 18
