njames93 added a comment. The default behaviour of this check should be transform void return types as that's how it has been since the check was first created. Adding an option which defaults to changing this behaviour would be harmful to current users of this check.

This is not a strong opinion. Please change this back to `IgnoreVoidReturnType` or maybe even `IgnoreVoid`, A lot of checks use Ignore options to help restrict what the check will report on, so we should follow that convention. If you want to avoid the double negatives that can be achieved by negative the value when you read and write the option from/to the options map. ```lang=c++ RewriteVoidReturnType(!Options.get("IgnoreVoid", false)) ``` Repository: rG LLVM Github Monorepo CHANGES SINCE LAST ACTION https://reviews.llvm.org/D135822/new/ https://reviews.llvm.org/D135822 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
