15  .cocciconfig Support

Coccinelle supports enabling custom options to be preferred when running spatch. This is supported through the search of .cocciconfig files in each of the following directories, later lines extend and may override earlier ones:

• Your current user’s home directory is processed first.
• Your directory from which spatch is called is processed next.
• The directory provided with the --dir option is processed last, if used.

Newlines, even with \, are not tolerated in attribute values. An example follows:

[spatch]
 options = --jobs 4
 options = --show-trying
