Lint your code using regex patterns, e.g. to check for copyright headers.

To activate this with the `lint` goal, you must set `[regex-lint].config`.

Unlike other linters, this can run on files not owned by targets, such as BUILD files.

## Basic options

<div style="color: purple">

### `config`

<code>--regex-lint-config="{'key1': val1, 'key2': val2, ...}"</code><br> <code>PANTS_REGEX_LINT_CONFIG</code><br>

</div> <div style="padding-left: 2em;"> <span style="color: green">default: <code>{}</code></span>

Config schema is as follows:

Meaning: if a file matches some path pattern, its content must match all the corresponding content patterns.

It's often helpful to load this config from a JSON or YAML file. To do that, set `[regex-lint].config = '@path/to/config.yaml'`, for example.
