What's Changed

This is the first beta release for the upcoming API Linter v2.0.0, which modernizes the linter's core by migrating to the official google.golang.org/protobuf module.

For full details on the v2.0.0 release, please see the main tracking issue: #1529 .

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES

• lint and locations packages have been updated to use the descriptor types from google.golang.org/protobuf/reflect/protoreflect instead of
  github.com/jhump/protoreflect/desc. This change affects users who programmatically create and use custom linting rules. For detailed migration guidance, please refer to the v2.0.0
  tracking issue.

Features

The core of this release is the migration of the entire codebase from jhump/protoreflect to google.golang.org/protobuf. This effort involved changes across all major components of the
linter.

• feat!(lint): migrate public API to google.golang.org/protobuf 0df18d2
  • Function signatures in the lint package, such as those in lint.Rule, now use types like protoreflect.MessageDescriptor and protoreflect.FieldDescriptor.
• feat!(locations): migrate public API to google.golang.org/protobuf
• feat!(rules): migrate all AIP rules to google.golang.org/protobuf
• feat!(cli): migrate command-line interface to google.golang.org/protobuf
• feat!(internal): migrate internal packages to google.golang.org/protobuf
