[Feature Request] Quality gate option for Files Changed in Pull request

[bauroo]

Product Area

The "Run Salesforce Code Analyzer" GitHub Action

Your Need or Problem

Currently there is an option to have a quality gate on all the issues using this method:

 - name: Check the Outputs to Determine Whether to Fail
         if: |
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.exit-code > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.num-sev1-violations > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.num-sev2-violations > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.num-violations > 10
         run: exit 1

Your Desired Solution

It would be good if there would also be an possibility to have a quality gate on the changed files:

 - name: Check the Outputs to Determine Whether to Fail
         if: |
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.changedFiles.exit-code > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.changedFiles.num-sev1-violations > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.changedFiles.num-sev2-violations > 0 ||
           steps.run-code-analyzer.outputs.changedFiles.num-violations > 10
         run: exit 1

This way it would be possible to improve quality over time as you might have some legacy code which already may have issues

@bauroo , this seems broadly doable. We'll log it as a work item in our backlog, and we'll provide more information as and when it becomes available.
