derived_rule

Which rule made a file derived or not, in the order the classifier tries them; the first that applies wins. A vocabulary for lvcs status and lvcs explain <path>, never a telemetry attribute value.

ValueMeaning
gitattributesA .gitattributes line decided: a negation (-linguist-generated, linguist-generated=false, -lvcs-derived, lvcs-derived=false) makes the file not derived, and is tried first; a positive attribute (linguist-generated, linguist-generated=true, lvcs-derived) makes it derived, and is tried after lvcs_toml.
lvcs_tomlA the generator's writes pattern in lvcs.toml at its approved heads decided, tried after a .gitattributes negation: a pattern makes the file derived, and a ! pattern makes it not derived.
patternThe path matches DERIVED_PATTERNS, tried after every .gitattributes and lvcs.toml rule.
markerOne of DERIVED_MARKERS is in the file's header, tried last.
noneNo rule makes the file derived, or the path is in NEVER_DERIVED, which is checked before every other rule.
