Ben Kietzman commented on ARROW-7304:
-------------------------------------
It might be useful to handle this by making {{.clang-tidy-ignore}} (which is
currently unreferenced) the default {{lint_exclusions}} file for
{{run_clang_tidy.py}}. It could duplicate the existing lint exclusions and add
any other files which should be ignored. Alternatively if lint_exclusions is
sufficiently exclusive then the HeaderFilterRegex field and
{{.clang-tidy-ignore}} can both be deleted.
> clang-tidy diagnostics not emitted for most headers

> Key: ARROW-7304
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7304
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++, CI
> Affects Versions: 0.15.1
> Reporter: Elvis Stansvik
> Priority: Minor
>
> The {{HeaderFilterRegex}} in {{.clang-tidy}} is written
> {code}
> HeaderFilterRegex:
> '^(.*codegen.*|.*_generated.*|.*windows_compatibility.h|.*pyarrow_api.h|.*pyarrow_lib.h|.*python/config.h|.*python/platform.h|.*thirdparty/ae/.*|.*vendored/.*|.*RcppExports.cpp.*|)$'
> {code}
> as if it was an exclusion filter, but {{HeaderFilterRegex}} is in fact an
> inclusion mechanism. So clang-tidy diagnostics are not emitted for I guess
> most of the headers in Arrow.

> which is where I came across this.
