Bug#993662: lintian: Please warn for source file that have This file was autogenerated or DO NOT EDIT BY HAND



Source: lintian
Severity: normal

X-Debbugs-Cc: ftpmaster@debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

Doing some code review on mozilla I found this interesting file
https://sources.debian.org/src/firefox-
esr/78.13.0esr-1/js/src/frontend/BinASTEnum.h/?hl=1#L1

// This file was autogenerated by binjs_generate_spidermonkey,
// please DO NOT EDIT BY HAND.

I think we should warn level pedantic when we found this 'file (was|is)
autogenerated' and Do not edit by hand

It will help work of ftpmaster BTW

Bastien
