Hi @DavidAnson :)

I am trying to use your awesome linter for this nf-core/pangenome#44 pipeline.
Here, we are providing a config file to tell markdownlint how we want the linting done. However, using -c/--config to provide this config file, it is completely ignored.
See the following tiny example:

markdownlint --config markdownlint.yml ./
CHANGELOG.md:8:81 MD013/line-length Line length [Expected: 80; Actual: 93]
CHANGELOG.md:18:81 MD013/line-length Line length [Expected: 80; Actual: 277]

markdownlint.yml:

# Markdownlint configuration file
default: true
line-length: false
no-duplicate-header:
    siblings_only: true
no-inline-html:
    allowed_elements:
        - img
        - p
        - kbd
        - details
        - summary

The line-length errors should not appear!
Changing the name of the config file to .markdownlint.yml, keeping it locally and not setting -c/--config resolves the issue.
But I thought this argument would allow to provide such a config file from anywhere?

I am running your 0.27.0 release on node v15.10.0.

Thanks for any feedback!

Could you try --config ./markdownlint.yml?

I did, same issue. Moving the config file to .markdownlint.yaml in the current folder fixes the issue.
