[bug] error when `biome.json` included files do not exist or are not processed

Bug Report (unverified)

Description

I am running some scripts on git pre-commit hooks. Which output the error below when a file does not seem to exist within a project. This should be solvable by using --no-errors-on-unmatched. You might also want to allow --files-ignore-unknown=true as a configuration flag.

• lint-staged --no-errors-on-unmatched

Output

For the issue I am referring to in description here is the output.

This is probably the same issue that happens when biome-lint executes and does not find some of the specified matchers.

Pre-commit Sample

Here is an exact sample of my pre-commit hook. Check added comments.

#!/bin/sh

. "$(dirname "$0")/_/husky.sh"
. "$(dirname "$0")/common.sh"

pnpm nx affected --target=lint ;

# biome-lint fails because it does not find `eslint.config.mjs`.
pnpm nx affected --target=biome-lint ; 

# explicit biome check command passes even if `eslint.config.mjs` does not exist.
pnpm biome check \
    --apply-unsafe \
    --formatter-enabled=true \
    --linter-enabled=true \
    --organize-imports-enabled=true \
    --no-errors-on-unmatched \
        .vscode \
        .infisical.json \
        biome.json \
        nx.json \
        package.json \
        commitlint.config.mjs \
        eslint.config.mjs \
        postcss.config.mjs \
        taze.config.mjs \
        global.d.ts ;

Context

You may be wondering why do I do a second pnpm biome check after running biome-lint. The reason is that I also want root configuration files to be linted and properly formatted. Which is something this plugin currently does not do.

Hello @FranciscoKloganB

If I have not misunderstood you, you are proposing to add some flag or configuration to the plugin so that if at the time of lint the files does not find any of these, it does not throw error?

Hey @mcfdez. That is correct.
