Summary
Red Knot skips over
type: ignore
andknot: ignore
comments that are syntatically incorrect. This can lead to uslesswana be ignore comments lingering in the code base or confusion when users don't understand why their ignore comment doesn't work.
This PR adds a new
invalid-ignore-comment
rule that flags ignore comments that are simply incorrect.Design questions
The rule flags invalid
type: ignore[code code]
comments even though Red Knot itself ignores the code portion of it. I think this is the correct behavior because Red Knot would ignore an invalidtype: ignore
comment. This way users at least know that Red Knot doesn't understand it. However, there's an argument that we shouldn't be opinionated about ignore comments from other tools.I think the "right" solution is adding an option to configure whether the
unused-ignore-comment
andinvalid-ignore-comment
should ignoretype: ignore
comments. If this turns out to be a problem in the future.Test Plan
