Possibility to preserve important comment?

Hi,

I am currently working with Umbraco 7 and since this comes pre-configured with the Client Dependency framework it was natural to use this for bundling and minifiying javascript files. However, in contrast to other minifiers I´ve worked with, DP removes comments marked as important with an exclamation mark. For example the license information for jQuery: /*! jQuery v1.11.0 | (c) 2005, 2014 jQuery Foundation, Inc. | jquery.org/license */

Comments of this type are most of the time copyright and license information and these have to be included when using such plugins in production.

I havent found a way to preserve such comments with DP. Did I miss a config-value or is this not possible?

Hi, I can create an option for this, currently there is no option to enable this.

Because CDF works at runtime you would not be shipping the CDF minified content in your source code which is where the copyright information would live, I don't think there's a legal requirement to keep these comments in the code that is served over http for your website (though I could be wrong). In any case, I can enable this in next release.
