lint: Directories ignored by default? #1095

Closed buhtz closed 1 month ago

buhtz commented 1 month ago

It seems to me that the folder .git is ignored by default when using $ reuse lint.

That make sense of course. But the "bug" is that it seems not to be documented anywhere.

The next point is a feature request to add more dirs to ignore (e.g. .github) or a switch to ignore all folders beginning with dot.

Hi @buhtz This is documented here, which reuse lint --help links to.

There are no plans to allow custom directories/files to be ignored.

I hope this helps!
