          # use relative paths, if no dirs specified root dir is scanned
          dirs: ".,./src,./src/data,./tests,./tests/pylint"
          # set to false by default

          whitelist_links: "https://xyz.xyz"
          # use relative paths
          whitelist_files: "./doc/HACKING.md"

https://example.com and http://localhost are automatically ignored

Each directory to be scanned must be specified directly, otherwise only the root dir will be scanned and subdirs will be ignored. At the same time, if you want the root dir AND subdirs to be scanned, remember to include a . as part of the list.

Files and or links can be whitelisted i.e. ignored.

Please note, with repos with a lot of links, a scan can take a LONG time, even up to 40+ minutes. If you wish scans to be no longer than a minute or two, use the fast branch.
