+readability-redundant-typename
+==============================
+
+Finds unnecessary uses of the ``typename`` keyword.
+
+``typename`` is unnecessary in two cases. First, before non-dependent names:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ /* typename */ std::vector<int>::size_type size;
+
+And second, since C++20, before dependent names that appear in a context
+where only a type is allowed (the following example shows just a few of them):
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ template <typename T>
+ using trait = /* typename */ T::type;
+
+ template <typename T>
+ struct S {
+ /* typename */ T::type variable;
+ /* typename */ T::type function(/* typename */ T::type);
+ };

And with this, It would be easier to reason why this check should be turned on,
even if there are currently no violations (because we live in C++17 in LLVM)
