Parameters:
allow_different_nesting
: Only check sibling headings (boolean
, defaultfalse
)siblings_only
: Only check sibling headings (boolean
, defaultfalse
)
This rule is triggered if there are multiple headings in the document that have the same text:
# Some text
## Some text
To fix this, ensure that the content of each heading is different:
# Some text
## Some more text
If the parameter siblings_only
(alternatively allow_different_nesting
) is
set to true
, heading duplication is allowed for non-sibling headings (common
in changelogs):

Rationale: Some Markdown parsers generate anchors for headings based on the heading name; headings with the same content can cause problems with that.
