Code scanning default setup is available for all CodeQL supported languages, excluding Swift

[github-product-roadmap]

Summary

Repositories will be able to use code scanning's default setup for enabling code analysis for all languages supported by CodeQL, excluding Swift. Extending support to include Swift will follow soon.

How will it work?

Repositories will be able to use code scanning default setup in order to attempt to analyze all CodeQL supported languages using code scanning default setup. JavaScript/TypeScript, Ruby and Python are selected by default; the other languages can be explicitly selected. If a specific language fails, it's possible to deselect the failing language from the configuration.

This feature will be available at the repository level.
