All “Output Control” Scan Options

--strip-root

Strip the root directory segment of all paths.

--full-root

Report full, absolute paths.

Note

The options --strip-root and --full-root can’t be used together, i.e. Any one option may be used in a single scan.

Note

The default is to always include the last directory segment of the scanned path such that all paths have a common root directory.

--ignore-author <pattern>

Ignore a file (and all its findings) if an author contains a match to the <pattern> regular expression.

--ignore-copyright-holder <pattern>

Ignore a file (and all its findings) if a copyright holder contains a match to the <pattern> regular expression.

Note

Note that this both the options --ignore-author and --ignore-copyright-holder will ignore a file even if it has other scanned data such as a license or errors.

--only-findings

Only return files or directories with findings for the requested scans. Files and directories without findings are omitted (file information is not treated as findings).
