So if people are looking for a place to start but are not familiar with the lintr codebase I think going through the open issues and adding an issue label is a good place. Just determining if an issue is a feature request, bug or documentation issue is very useful
A more moderate task would be to review a few of the smaller open PRs, e.g. jimhester/lintr#239, jimhester/lintr#170

A advanced task would be to review jimhester/lintr#236, however this is very important for the CRAN release as the object usage linter is one of the ones that is much slower in devel lintr than in the CRAN release

@jimhester
You can also find any open issue and send a PR to fix it of course!

Thx for all the info @jimhester ! Very helpful to get up and running
Quick q, I am assuming all of us should still fork the repo? In other projects I usually just clone and work from there, checkout a new branch, PR, wait for review, etc. Is that the case here?

@jimhester
Yeah you can use the same workflow here

@navdeep-G
Great, ty!
Hope to get up and running soon :)

I have a question regarding the object_length_linter. It looks like the default value is 20. But I'm getting: "Variable and function names should not be longer than 30 characters." Am I missing something here?
Jim Hester
@jimhester
Are you sure you didn't change the default value, in a .lintr file or in your editor configuration?
Ah, yes we should probably make them consistent, probably changing the default argument to 30 makes sense

Hiya. I did a bit of work on issue 325. Should I submit a pull request? What's the practice - do I need to assign that to anyone?
Jim Hester
@jimhester
Yes, please submit a PR for it

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone know's when we can expect to see the next release of lintr in CRAN? I'm currently working on a Jenkins pipeline for an R application and having checkstyle_output would be great to have!

I'm going to do a bit of labelling of the open issues.

@jimhester

I noticed there is a couple of issues that appear to already have been resolved, eg, #149
