The `--disable-all` switch appears to be always ignored in favour of the config?

[lyarwood]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've read the typecheck section of the FAQ (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/faq/#why-do-you-have-typecheck-errors).
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available (e.g., gocritic, go vet, etc.). (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)

Description of the problem

I'm unable to disable all linters from the command line when a local config is present, this is awkward as I'd like to reuse linters-settings from the local config for a second run against a different set of directories than the first. For example:

$ yq .linters .golangci.yml 
disable-all: true
enable:
  - bodyclose
  - dogsled
  - dupl
  - errcheck
  - exportloopref
  - exhaustive
  - funlen
  - ginkgolinter
  - gochecknoinits
  - goconst
  - gocritic
  - gocyclo
  - gofmt
  - goheader
  - goimports
  - gomnd
  - goprintffuncname
  - gosec
  - gosimple
  - govet
  - ineffassign
  - lll
  - misspell
  - nakedret
  - noctx
  - nolintlint
  - rowserrcheck
  - staticcheck
  - stylecheck
  - typecheck
  - unconvert
  - unparam
  - unused
  - whitespace
$ yq .linters-settings.ginkgolinter .golangci.yml 
forbid-focus-container: true
$ golangci-lint run --disable-all -E ginkgolinter --verbose
[..]
INFO [lintersdb] Active 33 linters: [bodyclose dogsled dupl errcheck exhaustive exportloopref funlen ginkgolinter gochecknoinits goconst gocritic gocyclo gofmt goheader goimports gomnd goprintffuncname gosec gosimple govet ineffassign lll misspell nakedret noctx nolintlint rowserrcheck staticcheck stylecheck unconvert unparam unused whitespace] 

Providing --no-config avoids this but I then loose the ginkgolinter configuration. Without a way of passing these options in through the command line the only real workaround here is to write a second minimal config.
