Hello,
I would like to enable a git hook for some basic quality assurance of our development efforts in Julia. In particular, I would like to check for
- line is not longer than C characters
- function is not longer than X lines
- if else block is not longer than Y lines
- try catch block is not longer than Y lines
and similar.
How do I do this? Which package I should go for? I found few linting packages but was not sure which one to pick.
Thanks!

I have to say that I missed this one as I was looking for keyword โlintโ ๐ . I will check it out, thanks!

Hello, although this is a bit older thread, let me re-open it - once I started using Juliaformatter.jl I could not find any options to e.g. check for number of lines in a function so that I can add it to a git hook to prevent writing long functions (e.g. longer than 50 lines).
Do I need to look for a linter instead and if yes what are the options?
Thanks!
