false SC2218

[pan64]

For bugs with existing features

• Rule Id (if any, e.g. SC2218): SC2218
• My shellcheck version (shellcheck --version or "online"): 0.11.0
• The rule's wiki page does not already cover this (e.g. https://shellcheck.net/wiki/SC2086)
• I tried on https://www.shellcheck.net/ and verified that this is still a problem on the latest commit - cannot be checked, since it needs sourcing

Here's a snippet or screenshot that shows the problem:

#!/bin/sh
# shellcheck source=path/log.sh                                                                                                                                       
source "${VAR}/path/log.sh" 

log_info "message"

Here's what shellcheck currently says:

^-- SC2218 (error): This function is only defined later. Move the definition up.

Here's what I wanted or expected to see:

As it is defined in the sourced log.sh it should be accepted without issues.

(VAR is actually the current dir)
0.10.0 worked.

Actually not able to repeat this

PS replacing "source" with full stop to silence that specific warning...

Ok, a little bit more difficult to reproduce, but it is here:

/tmp/lib.sh:
function my_func() {
    :
}

/tmp/test2.sh:
# shellcheck source=/tmp/lib.sh
source /tmp/lib.sh

/tmp/test1.sh:
#!/bin/bash
# shellcheck source=/tmp/lib.sh
source /tmp/lib.sh
my_func "test"
# shellcheck source=/tmp/test2.sh
source /tmp/test2.sh

Error message:
in /tmp/test1.sh line 7:
my_func "test"
^------------^ SC2218 (error): This function is only defined later. Move the definition up.
