Changing severity mapping

[Tsht]

Hello.
Is it possible to change severity mapping ?
For instance, I use this analyzer : config/labels/analyzers/clang-tidy.json
But some checkers are considered lower for us, it would allow to not filter them in clang, but affect them a lower priority.

Hi,

As for the severity levels we try to apply the following rules:

Critical severity is reserved currently for compilation errors.
High severity checkers indicate actual runtime errors.
Middle severity checkers indicate error-prone issues that are not necessarily causing runtime errors.
Low severity checkers indicate code smells.

I think, there will always be debatable categorizations when both an example and counter example can be given for a checker category in terms of runtime errors. I would say that we should change severity only if they are in an obviously wrong category.

Ok thanks, for the one I'm looking at it can be considered as good severity regarding this definition.
