[Discuss-gnuradio] Coverity scan and GNU Radio

[Philip Balister]

We've added GNU Radio to the list of projects on Coverity Scan.

Coverity is a static analysis tool that finds many coding mistakes.

If you want to get started contributing to GNU Radio, this is a good
place to find some easy tasks. That said, please take some time to look
at the bugs and make the proper fix and do not just make changes to
silence the messages.

When you commit a fix, please reference the Coverity ID (CID) in the
commit message. For example:

https://github.com/gnuradio/gnuradio/commit/dab30e873a8849712e03c26066909a62c8831880

Find the GNURadio project at:

https://scan.coverity.com/projects

and add yourself to the project to access the analysis. Every Monday,
the scan is updated.
