Description

@shenxianpeng

I'm wondering whether to change this action's name in the marketplace from "C/C++ Lint Action" to "C/C++ Linter", because the following reasons.

  1. To improve the ranking (A good action should be known)
    When I search in the marketplace with the keyword "lint", our action is on the first page, but when I search with "linter", the action is on the second page, even though we have a higher start, from the search results, it should be because of not a linter in the name. (see screenshots below)
  2. Word "linter" seems used more than "lint" in the marketplace
  3. The action name and the organization name use the same suffix - linter

I also want to update the action's description

  • From "Automatically checks push & PR changes with clang-format & clang-tidy, then post annotations/comments with faulty results."
  • To "Automatically checks push/pull request changes with clang-format/clang-tidy then post annotations/comments with faulty results."

Because "&" cannot be displayed in the marketplace. Or use the following description from README to make difference with other actions forked from ArtificialAmateur/cpp-linter-action

  • "Linting C/C++ code integrating clang-tidy and clang-format to collect feedback provided in the form of thread comments and/or annotations"
