#!/usr/bin/env python3
#
# Determines which clang-tidy checks are "fast enough" to run in clangd.
# This runs clangd --check --check-tidy-time and parses the output.
# This program outputs a header fragment specifying which checks are fast:
#   FAST(bugprone-argument-comment, 5)
#   SLOW(misc-const-correctness, 200)
# If given the old header fragment as input, we lean to preserve its choices.
#
# This is not deterministic or hermetic, but should be run occasionally to
# update the list of allowed checks. From llvm-project:
#   clang-tools-extra/clangd/TidyFastChecks.py --clangd=build-opt/bin/clangd
# Be sure to use an optimized, no-asserts, tidy-enabled build of clangd!
