Feature Request: Add Configuration Option to Disable Pending Specs as Warnings

[andrewmcodes]

Problem

Currently, rspec-github formats pending specs as warnings, which show up in annotations list. While this behavior can be useful in some cases, it can also be distracting when there are many pending specs or when they are intentionally not a concern. It would be helpful to have a configuration option to disable this behavior.

Proposed Solution

I have not worked with RSpec plugins/formatters before so I am not sure if this is helpful but here are some examples of how it could work based on some other gems:

Example 1 (based on VCR config)

# spec/support/config/rspec_github.rb
require "rspec/github"

RSpec::GithubFormatter.configure do |config|
  config.show_pending_as_warnings = false
end

Example 2 (based on Webmock config)

# spec/support/config/rspec_github.rb
require "rspec/github"

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.before(:suite) do
    RSpec::GithubFormatter.show_pending_as_warnings = false
  end
end

Benefits

• Reduce clutter in annotation list
• Allow developers to focus on more critical failures
• Makes the formatter work for different development workflows

Work Around

I could work around this by forking the action and modifying the code but I wanted to ask here first!

Thank you for considering!

If I understand your problem correctly, you don't want to show pending specs in the GitHub annotations list.

This issue is also described in the usage section of the readme as you can solve this by using the RSpec filter:

rspec --format RSpec::Github::Formatter --tag ~skip

This will not run any pending specs and thus not output this to GitHub. Does this solve your problem or did I misunderstand it?
