Cannot turn off one rule for one package

[VovaStelmashchuk]

I want to disable one of my custom rules for one package.

Expected Behavior

Files in package api can ignore rule class-must-be-internal.

Observed Behavior

Linter apply rule class-must-be-internal for all files.

Steps to Reproduce

My .editconfig

[*.{kt, kts}]
disabled_rules = import-ordering, no-wildcard-imports, comment-spacing

[**/api/*.{kt, kts}]
disabled_rules = class-must-be-internal

Your Environment

• Version of ktlint used:
• Name and version (or code for custom task) of integration used (Gradle plugin, Maven plugin, command line, custom Gradle task): org.jmailen.gradle:kotlinter-gradle:2.3.2
• Version of Gradle used (if applicable): 5.6.4
• Operating System and version: MacOS 10.15.4 (19E287)

@VovaStelmashchuk have you had success overriding any editorConfig properties in the api package (e.g. max_line_length)? I'm trying to figure out if this is a problem with the disabled_rules property or in general we're not merging editorConfig rules properly. My quick local testing suggests that maybe overriding configs for specific paths is broken in general.

@shashachu You are right. I cannot disable any rule. May be ktlint has another way to do it.

@VovaStelmashchuk disabled_rules is working properly for me with [*.{kt,kts}] but not with any other path formats (e.g. **/blah/*.kt). Thanks for the bug report - we'll look into it.
