- when scanning source code, this now only checks source code comments
and double-quote strings. No more finding bad words as part of code
- this allows the full scan to be done in a single invocation
- detects source code or markdown by file name extension
- moved the whitelist words config into the single `badwords.txt` file,
no more having them separately (see top of file for syntax)
- all whitelisted words are checked case insensitively now
- removed support for whitelisting words on a specific line number. We
did not use it and it is too fragile
Removing the actual code from getting scanned made the script take an
additional 0.5 seconds on my machine.
Scanning 1525 files now takes a little under 1.7 seconds for me.
Closes#20909
Also:
- support per-directory and per-upper-directory whitelist entries.
- convert badlist input grep tweak into the above format.
(except for 'And' which had just a few hits.)
- fix many code exceptions, but do not enforce.
(there also remain about 350 'will' uses in lib)
- fix badwords in example code, drop exceptions.
- badwords-all: convert to Perl.
To make it usable from CMake.
- FAQ: reword to not use 'will'. Drop exception.
Closes#20886
- 'badwords' is now a target in Makefile.am
- change badwords.txt to specify plain "words" instead of regexes so the
script can build single regexes when scanning, which makes the script
perform much faster (~6 times faster)
Closes#20869
