Double quote array expansions to avoid re-splitting elements.

Problematic code:

cp $@ ~/dir

Correct code:

cp "$@" ~/dir

Rationale:

Double quotes around $@ (and similarly, ${array[@]}) prevents globbing and word splitting of individual elements, while still expanding to multiple separate arguments.

Let's say you have three arguments: baz, foo bar and *

"$@" will expand into exactly that: baz, foo bar and *

$@ will expand into multiple other arguments: baz, foo, bar, file.txt and otherfile.jpg

Since the latter is rarely expected or desired, ShellCheck warns about it.

Exceptions

When you want globbing of individual elements.

MD003 - Header style

Tags: headers

Aliases: header-style

Parameters: style ("consistent", "atx", "atxclosed", "setext", "setextwith_atx"; default "consistent")

This rule is triggered when different header styles (atx, setext, and 'closed' atx) are used in the same document:

# ATX style H1

## Closed ATX style H2 ##

Setext style H1
===============

Be consistent with the style of header used in a document:

# ATX style H1

## ATX style H2

The setextwithatx doc style allows atx-style headers of level 3 or more in documents with setext style headers:

Setext style H1
===============

Setext style H2
---------------

### ATX style H3

Note: the configured header style can be a specific style to use (atx, atxclosed, setext, setextwith_atx), or simply require that the usage be consistent within the document.

# SYNOPSIS

MD025 - Multiple top level headers in the same document

Tags: headers

Aliases: single-h1

Parameters: level (number; default 1)

This rule is triggered when a top level header is in use (the first line of the file is a h1 header), and more than one h1 header is in use in the document:

# Top level header

# Another top level header

To fix, structure your document so that there is a single h1 header that is the title for the document, and all later headers are h2 or lower level headers:

# Title

## Header

## Another header

Rationale: A top level header is a h1 on the first line of the file, and serves as the title for the document. If this convention is in use, then there can not be more than one title for the document, and the entire document should be contained within this header.

Note: The level parameter can be used to change the top level (ex: to h2) in cases where an h1 is added externally.
