/**
* The list of artifacts (and their transitive dependencies) to exclude from
* the check.
* The list of patterns to exclude from the check. This is matched against the project dependencies (and will implicitly also remove transitive dependencies from matching dependencies).
* Each pattern has the format {@code [groupId]:[artifactId]:[type]:[version]}. You can leave out unspecified parts (which is equal to using {@code *}).
* Examples: {@code org.apache.*} would match all artifacts whose group id starts with {@code org.apache.}, and {@code :::*-SNAPSHOT} would match all snapshot artifacts.
