Spurious scriptencoding error when checking multiple files

[puremourning]

The warning "Set encoding before setting scriptencoding (see :help :scriptencoding)" is reported when a set encoding= is found in any file after :scriptencoding

To reproduce:

• Create a file dir1/file1.vim with the following:

set encoding=utf-8
scriptencoding utf-8

• Create a file dir2/file2.vim with the following:

set encoding=utf-8

• run vint dir1/ dir2/

Expected result: no error
Actual result:

dir2/file2.vim:1:1: Set encoding before setting scriptencoding (see :help :scriptencoding)

Hi there, I can confirm that I'm seeing this issue with vint 0.4a3 on my .vim directory (it actually contains my vimrc file)

my vimrc sets encoding first and then scriptencoding. there's one more file that sets scriptencoding and that causes the error to show up

Workaround:

policies:
  ProhibitEncodingOptionAfterScriptEncoding:
    enabled: false

Hi there, I can confirm that adding the snippet of configuration that @offa mentioned to ~/.vintrc.yaml takes out the error about the encoding.

It also takes out all legit checks for this within files though.

The way I worked arount this issue was to modify my ~/.vimrc in this way to disable the warning only where the error was being produced:

  " vint: -ProhibitEncodingOptionAfterScriptEncoding
  set encoding=utf-8
  scriptencoding utf-8
  " vint: +ProhibitEncodingOptionAfterScriptEncoding
