shebang_has_executable.rs

//! `shebang_has_executable` — every file that starts with `#!`
//! must have the Unix `+x` bit set.
//!
//! The inverse of `executable_has_shebang`: catches scripts that
//! were committed with a shebang but where the executable bit
//! was never set (or got clobbered by `git add --chmod=-x`,
//! `cp`, a tarball round-trip, etc.). Running them requires
//! `bash script.sh` instead of `./script.sh`, which is usually
//! not the author's intent.
//!
//! Non-Unix platforms: rule is a no-op. No fix op — `chmod`
//! auto-apply is deferred to a later release (see ROADMAP).
