<details><summary>If the flagged items are :exploding_head: false positives</summary>
If items relate to a ...
* binary file (or some other file you wouldn't want to check at all).
Please add a file path to the `excludes.txt` file matching the containing file.
File paths are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can [test](
https://www.regexplanet.com/advanced/perl/) yours before committing to verify it will match your files.
`^` refers to the file's path from the root of the repository, so `^README\.md$` would exclude [README.md](
../tree/HEAD/README.md) (on whichever branch you're using).
* well-formed pattern.
If you can write a [pattern](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Configuration-Examples:-patterns) that would match it,
try adding it to the `patterns.txt` file.
Patterns are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can [test](
https://www.regexplanet.com/advanced/perl/) yours before committing to verify it will match your lines.
Note that patterns can't match multiline strings.
