Everyone makes typos. This includes people writing documentation and comments, but it also includes programmers naming variables, functions, apis, classes, and filenames.
Often, programmers will use InitialCapitalization, camelCase,
ALL_CAPS, or IDLCase when naming their things. When they do this, it makes
it much harder for naive spelling tools to recognize misspellings, and as such,
with a really high false-positive rate, people don't tend to enable spellchecking
at all.
This repository's tools are capable of tolerating all of those variations.
Specifically, w understands enough about how programmers name things that it
can split the above conventions into word-like things for checking against a
dictionary.
See workflows for how these tools are usually used together. See tools for a description of each tool and sample usage.
These tools are designed to live in ~/bin, I haven't spent the time to have
them fish for their own locations. I'm not a huge fan of bash and would rather
use either portable sh or perl.
They're built on top of hg, but you could probably make an hg
script / symlink that runs git w/ minimal effort.

It is possible to integrate this with your favorite CI. I'm slowly working on this.
