This pull request sets up GitHub code scanning for this repository. Once the scans have completed and the checks have passed, the analysis results for this pull request branch will appear on this overview. Once you merge this pull request, the 'Security' tab will show more code scanning analysis results (for example, for the default branch). Depending on your configuration and choice of analysis tool, future pull requests will be annotated with code scanning analysis results. For more information about GitHub code scanning, check out the documentation.
This looks awesome! .. I just wonder if we should work on some of the issues or we can/should add some exceptions for the hits.
Probably need to review them and figure out which ones are actionable and which ones may not be relevant.
They were just the default values created by the GitHub templates, but yeah that sounds like a better idea
But unfortunately GitHub Actions don't support that - https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows#schedule
I will tweak the schedules though
