Some progress on the new :shadowed-var linter:

https://github.com/borkdude/clj-kondo/issues/646#issuecomment-704900810 https://github.com/borkdude/clj-kondo/tree/shadow-binding-646 feedback welcome, now it's still in the works.

that's sooo nice!

Is there a pattern for suppressing unused warnings in defmulti dispatch function arguments?

@hugod you can either start the args with underscores or use #_:clj-kondo/ignore or #_{:clj-kondo/ignore [:unused-binding]}

Got rid of all shadowed var warnings in clj-kondo 😅 https://github.com/borkdude/clj-kondo/commit/f8a43e1c5eb6e2ce840cb9656a3c43f788792b11

Lol, I thought it didn't work in one spot, but I had a (:refer-clojure :exclude [ns-name]) in that namespace :)

eating one's own dog food eh?

if clj-kondo's own code isn't compliant, the build fails - it's a good smoke test

I just pushed a snapshot release of clj-kondo (`2020.09.10-20201007.185225-22`) that fixes a memory problem when using clj-kondo in a long running process. Users that use clj-kondo in a long running process (on the JVM, as a library or LSP server) are advised to update to this version. Details: https://github.com/borkdude/clj-kondo/issues/1036 I already pushed out a new version of the clj-kondo VSCode extension with the fix. cc @snoe @robert-stuttaford

I will push a proper release later this week or next week, that will include some new features as well, but I didn't want to wait for this.
