When the `eslint` `devDependency` is upgraded, that process will need to be repeated.\r\n\r\nCould we find a way for projects to use the same config used by eslint core?\r\n\r\n--\r\n\r\nThree possible solutions I've come up with so far:\r\n\r\n1. Manually copy the `.eslintrc` from the main repository. (Disadvantage: Annoying.)\r\n2. Include the `.eslintrc` in the npm distribution. (Disadvantage: Enabling or reconfiguring a rule for our own use would then be a breaking change. Could we get around that by making this a private \"API\" of sorts?)\r\n3. Publish a new module, eslint-config-eslint. (Disadvantage: Adding and enabling new rules becomes even harder. Could not track eslint package's version because enabling or changing a rule would be a breaking change.)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/eslint/eslint/issues/comments/141211790","html_url":"https://github.com/eslint/eslint/issues/3525#issuecomment-141211790","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/eslint/eslint/issues/3525","id":141211790,"user":{"login":"nzakas","id":38546,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/38546?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas","html_url":"https://github.com/nzakas","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/nzakas/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-09-17T20:07:39Z","updated_at":"2015-09-17T20:07:39Z","body":"Good point."}}
