[Feature request] `format-comment` distinct between doc comments and in-code comments

[praxamarnix]

What do you want to discuss?

I am using format-comment as a rule and would like to make a distinction between doc-style comments with three slashes (///) and simple in-code comments with two slashes (//).

I tried to add an ignore rule like so:

- format-comment:
  exclude:
  - ^\/\/\s

But as the documentation describes, I believe that the slashes are removed from the input of the regex.

/// This is my very special class that requires a good sentence.
class Foo {
  void bar() {
    // first do something nice
    hello();
    // quick response
    bye();
  }
}

The simple comments inside the code can sometimes be a single word and I would be okay with ignoring those lines.
Only official documentation should be formatted.
Would it be possible to add an option for that?

@praxamarnix hi, sure, will add a configuration for this use-case. Please note that the exclude config entry is for excluding files, like so:
