crossSbtVersions should be in excludeLintKeys by default #6571
Description
steps
Use the following project/build.properties:
sbt.version=1.5.4
and the following build.sbt:
inThisBuild(Def.settings(
crossScalaVersions := Seq("2.12.3", "2.10.6"),
scalaVersion := "2.12.3",
crossSbtVersions := Seq("1.0.2", "0.13.16"),
))
lazy val `sbt-platform-deps` = project.in(file("."))
.enablePlugins(SbtPlugin)Launch sbt
problem
I get the following warning, even though I'm using crossSbtVersions in the most straightforward way:

expectation
I expect no warning about the standard way of using crossSbtVersions.
workaround
Add the following to build.sbt:
Global / excludeLintKeys += crossSbtVersions
