rs-clippy-check Action

Clippy lints in your Pull Requests

This GitHub Action executes clippy and posts all lints as annotations for the pushed commit ¹.

This GitHub Action has been forked from actions-rs/clippy-check. The original project published under the name rust-clippy-check. See LICENSE for copyright attribution details.

Notes

¹ : Currently, GitHub sets a limit of 10 annotations of each type per run (see this page for more information). So if there are more than 10 such lints of one type reported by clippy, only the first 10 will appear as PR annotations. The other lints will still appear in the check run summary (see this one for example).
