`golangci-lint` is a fast Go linters runner. It is a code quality tool that aggregates many Go linters into a single tool.

CodeRabbit currently supports`golangci-lint` v1.x.

Users attempting to use`golangci-lint` v2.x may encounter warnings or unexpected behavior, as full compatibility with v2.x is not yet guaranteed. We recommend configuring your project to use`golangci-lint` v1.x if you experience issues.

`golangci-lint` supports the following configuration files:

CodeRabbit will automatically detect and use these configuration files if present in your repository.

If your project requires`golangci-lint` v2 for local development or CI, but you wish to use CodeRabbit for v1-compatible linting, you can manage this by:

1.**Ensuring a v1-compatible configuration file exists:** Create or maintain a`.golangci.yml` (or other supported format) that is compatible with`golangci-lint` v1.x.

2.**Using a separate script for v2:** For your local development or CI, you might use a wrapper script or a different command to invoke`golangci-lint` v2, ensuring it uses a v2-specific configuration if needed. CodeRabbit will primarily look for the standard configuration files.

Alternatively, you can disable`golangci-lint` in CodeRabbit if v2 is strictly required and you cannot maintain a v1-compatible configuration.

`golangci-lint` can detect many issues such as:
