GitHub Super-Linter Slim Image Action

The GitHub Super-Linter maintains two major images:

• super-linter/super-linter:v5
• super-linter/super-linter:slim-v5

In order to help users pull this image more naturally, the action.yml in this directory can help users pull the slim image.

Slim Image

The slim super-linter/super-linter:slim-v5 comes with all supported linters but removes the following:

• rust linters
• dotenv linters
• armttk linters
• pwsh linters
• c# linters

By removing these linters, we were able to bring the image size down by 2gb and drastically speed up the build and download time. The behavior will be the same for non-supported languages, and will skip languages at run time. Example usage:
