3 years ago Adding a generated Verilog (or other) source is currently not possible if the license check is being used.
we should mark them as generated or vendored (what linguist calls third party) in the .gitattributes;
- https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/docs/overrides.md#generated-code
- https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/docs/overrides.md#vendored-code
The license checker should then understand this information.
There should be a way to skip the check for generated files or, alternatively, add the possibility to add an escape line to bypass the check for a given file.
We should not have a way to bypass the license check.
