Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/287

When looking into how to ignore files, I stumbled upon https://github.com/DavidAnson/vscode-markdownlint#markdownlintignore and I think the .markdownlintignore file should also be documented in the README of this project (because this is where people look first).

(Now that I know what to search for, I also saw the issue #245. Is it such a new feature then?)

Let me know if you want me to make a pull request. I think the content could just be copy-pasted from the link above.

Only the VS Code extension and the CLI will automatically look for and use a .markdownlint.json file. Both already document that. Providing custom config to this library is documented in the following places:

I see. I probably got confused by the different projects. Here is the documentation for the CLI: https://github.com/igorshubovych/markdownlint-cli#ignoring-files. Let's close this issue again then.
