+# or a cosmetic style nit; none was a genuine defect, and code-"fixing" most of

+# library sources are all false positives. Globs are Java-glob: `dir/**` matches
+# everything under dir; `**.ext` matches that extension anywhere.
+
+# Non-source trees are covered by their own purpose-built gates in
+# .github/workflows/verify-build.yml (check-readme, check-release-notes, cpplint,
+# the DR-008 stress/valgrind lanes, shellcheck-free CI helpers, etc.), not by
+# Codacy's generic linters. Markdown prose, tests, examples, historical review
+# specs and CI helper scripts produce only style/heuristic noise here.
