Description
We have a third party source file that we are using (NDesk.Options) which has its own code style. We do not want to apply any formatting to this file. Instead we want to exclude this from analysis/formatting.
As per https://github.com/DotNetAnalyzers/StyleCopAnalyzers/issues/2960#issuecomment-642851675
The way to work around this is to put this at the top of the file:
```csharp
//
```
However testing dotnet-format has shown that this MUST be the first line of the file, where as Visual Studio/Roslyn Analyzers appear to be a bit more forgiving (it looks like so long as it is part of the first comment block it works).
This should probably be documented somewhere if this is intended.
```
C:\GitHub\VisualStudioSolutionUpdater>dotnet format --version
5.0.152601+7d7b7f05e9ed67cc4c983b9164add3eb32fa6518
```
FWIW the .editorconfig suggestion also works as documented by Sam and should probably be called out as well.
