MD007 when MD010 disabled

Object

When MD010 is disabled (hard tabs use case), it should be:

• MD007.indent = 1 and MD007.start_indent = 1 by default
• Formatting to tabs instead of spaces

Just because tabs are allowed in a project does not mean they will/should be used for lists. Although I think that could be specified via a parameter to the rule.

  Disagree It's a convention to normalize the indentation style project-wise If MD010 is disabled, it means that the project is enforcing a tab style indentation Tab style indentation => 1 tab / indentation

[DavidAnson]

With very few exceptions, rules do not change their behavior based on how other rules are configured. This project prefers spaces and provides rule MD010 to help enforce that. Disabling MD010 does not introduce a requirement to use tabs. As the specification outlines, the behavior of tab stops is not always intuitive (https://spec.commonmark.org/0.30/#tabs).

It sounds like adding the parameter I propose above would satisfy your scenario.

  Do you mean that disabling MD010 does remove the requirement to not use hard tabs, rather that induce the requirement to use tabs?

  If previous point is true, then agreed

Correct: MD010 will warn about tabs when it is enabled, but will do nothing when it is disabled.
