When the `add_new_check.py` script is invoked to create a new vanilla custom clang-tidy check, the following code is emitted inside the check override function:
```cpp
diag(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "function %0 is insufficiently awesome")
<< MatchedDecl;
diag(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "insert 'awesome'", DiagnosticIDs::Note)
<< FixItHint::CreateInsertion(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "awesome_");
```
Running clang tidy with `--fix` won't fix the function name.
Changing the code to the following will work:
```cpp
diag(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "function %0 is insufficiently awesome")
<< MatchedDecl
<< FixItHint::CreateInsertion(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "awesome_");
diag(MatchedDecl->getLocation(), "insert 'awesome'", DiagnosticIDs::Note);
```
I'm not sure why but I think the reason for this is that the FixItHint comes after a `DiagnosticsIDs::Note` which possibly prevents fixes afterwards. Also removing the last line altogether might work, but I'm not sure how the mainteners want this to look like.
I hope I didn't break too many rules, this is my first time posting, was trying to understand why this isn't working for way too long
