Since we might periodically change linter configuration, as done in #849, we should keep the existing PR validation behavior that only lints the files that were changed in a particular PR. This will allow us to continue to avoid unnecessarily large PRs to fix linting failures if and when the linter configuration changes.
If we're keeping the current, limited PR validation behavior, we should use the same behavior for the
make lint
task to that developers can easily identify the minimum necessary changes locally. This updates themake lint
task to only lint files that have been changed sinceorigin/main
, which should closely approximate the behavior of the PR validation workflow.
