Lint is still failing with 429s. |
Absolute URLs pointing back to this repo hit GitHub rate limits during link checking. Convert them to relative paths and add a .lycheeignore for an external otel link that also triggers 429s. Signed-off-by: Gregor Zeitlinger <gregor.zeitlinger@grafana.com>

Working on a fix upstream in flint (flint#100) — it remaps same-repo URLs to local file paths so the link checker doesn't hit GitHub at all. Once that's released and this repo bumps flint, the 429s should be gone. |
Flint v0.8.0 remaps GitHub blob URLs to raw.githubusercontent.com, avoiding 429 rate limits. Remove .lycheeignore and revert retry tuning that were workarounds for the same issue. Signed-off-by: Gregor Zeitlinger <gregor.zeitlinger@grafana.com>
