Description

A typical use case for the source jar is attachment in an IDE, which allows for access to javadocs, and debugging. For this case there is no need to include resources in the source jar, as they will already be in the standard jar.

This does not create any errors, but it may be inconvenient if a project includes large resources, such as images.

It would be useful to provide a configuration option which allows the resources to be excluded.

Dennis Lundberg added a comment -

Added a configuration parameter "excludeResources" for this that defaults to "false". Can also be set from the command line with

-Dsource.excludeResources=<true|false>

Also deployed a new 2.0.4-SNAPSHOT so that you can try it out.
