[change] Only report first instance of unreachable code
See original GitHub issueIn ESLint 2.11.1 (bundled with Atom linter-eslint), the error for no-unreachable marks every single line of code after the return statement. Maybe this is redundant and it should only mark the first instance of unreachable code? It’s pretty obvious that everything after that line will also be unreachable.
Illustration:
Perhaps we could control this via a flag/setting, in case some people do prefer to have every line marked.
