golangci-lint can't find source files when run from outside the module directory in a go.work environment #4219
Description
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 have a project that uses go.work with several modules. golangci-lint fails at running the linter from anywhere but the module's directory for one of these, with Running error: context loading failed: no go files to analyze.
