Lint Name
clippy::tabs_in_doc_comments
Reproducer
I tried this code:
mod clippy { /** * This comment is fine */ pub const I_LOVE_TABS: bool = true; }I saw this happen:
warning: using tabs in doc comments is not recommended --> src/lib.rs:13:1 | 13 | * This comment is fine | ^^^^ help: consider using four spaces per tab | = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#tabs_in_doc_comments = note: `#[warn(clippy::tabs_in_doc_comments)]` on by default warning: using tabs in doc comments is not recommended --> src/lib.rs:14:1 | 14 | */ | ^^^^ help: consider using four spaces per tab | = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#tabs_in_doc_comments I expected to see this happen:
Nothing should happen, the tabs are outside the comment.
