+This directory contains checker scripts and other files they need.
+Each checker script is assumed to be run from tox,
+when working directory is set to ${CSIT_DIR}.
+Each script should:
++ Return nonzero exit code when it fails.
+++ The tox might ignore the code when the check is not blocking.
++ Write less verbose output to stderr.
++ Write (to stderr) PASSED or FAILED to help with debugging.
++ Direct more verbose output to appropriately named .log file.
++ Only the output suitable for automated processing by an external caller
+ should be written to stdout.
+++ The level of "less verbose" depends on check and state of codebase.
++ TODO: Should we carefully document which files are
+ whitelisted/blacklisted for a particulat check?
