alint-rules 0.4.5

//! `no_submodules` — flag the presence of a `.gitmodules` file at
//! the repo root.
//!
//! Submodules introduce a second source of truth (the submodule's
//! commit pointer) that drifts silently, complicates CI, and
//! surprises users who `git clone` without `--recurse-submodules`.
//! Many projects have adopted vendoring or package managers and
//! want to keep submodules banned forever.
//!
//! This rule is intentionally *not* configurable by `paths` —
//! `.gitmodules` at the repo root is what actually enables git
//! submodules, and letting users override that would invite
//! footguns. For more general "file X must not exist" checks,
//! use `file_absent` instead.
//!
//! Fixable via `file_remove`, which deletes `.gitmodules`. Note
//! this is the surface-level fix — the user still needs to run
//! `git submodule deinit` and clean up `.git/modules/` themselves.
