Initial checklist
Problem
We occasionally have need to link to a permalink of a file such as the form https://github.com/owner/repo/blob/123abc/path/to/file.txt so that we can preserve reference to a previous artifact that has now been deleted from the main branch. This causes issues for remark because it flags the file as no longer present. It would be handy to be able to specify which branch we actually care about in the github link (could generalize to other providers as well) and have others be default ignored.
Current solutions
Can be achieved with skipPathPatterns, but requires an entry for every file that needs to be ignored
Proposed solutions
Either an allowlist of refs to include checks for, or a denylist of refs to exclude checks for
