0.0.20 Alpha 5

⏩ Upgrading

• 🏷️ You can just change your tag to this release, but some features require updates to the workflow (including collapsing the most recent comment if the current check passes ✅ ); please consider applying the workflow from check-spelling/spell-check-this@prerelease.
  • You will want to copy over the with: elements you're using (into each place that uses: check-spelling/check-spelling).
• 🐍 If you see complaints about b'... or r'... or similar, you probably should add something like this (from https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Configuration-Examples:-patterns) to patterns.txt (you can select the subset that you actually use, which may be just b, r, and f):

  # Python stringprefix / binaryprefix
  \b(?:B|BR|Br|F|FR|Fr|R|RB|RF|Rb|Rf|U|UR|Ur|b|bR|br|f|fR|fr|r|rB|rF|rb|rf|u|uR|ur)'

🐜 Bug fixes

• 🧹 #23 Collapse older check comments
• 🗣️ #16 allow comments in dictionary, expect, and allow files (note that various components may drop comments from expect)
• 😊 #12 remove duplicated word (there's now code to catch this for everyone going forward)
• 📐 Fix handling of we'd (due to changing the minimum word length from 2 to 3, we no longer was a base word, but we'd wanted to stem to it)
• 📃 Fix some handling of case folding issues (there are still some left)

🗑️ Cleanup

• 🐳 Docker file content has been removed (this legacy content hasn't been used for a long time) -- to run locally, use nektos/act
• ⬢node.js trampoline has been removed (this legacy content hasn't been used for a long time) in favor of composite actions
• 🐎 Discontinued use of parallel -- it's too inconsistent and xargs -P is sufficient and sufficiently portable to satisfy the requirements of check-spelling.
