New Lint: `branches_sharing_code`
This lint checks if all `if`-blocks contain some statements that are the same and can be moved out of the blocks to prevent code duplication. Here is an example:
```rust
let _ = if ... {
println!("Start"); // <-- Lint for code duplication
let _a = 99;
println!("End"); // <-- Lint for code duplication
false
} else {
println!("Start");
let _b = 17;
println!("End");
false
};
```
This could be written as:
```rust
println!("Start");
let _ = if ... {
let _a = 99;
false
} else {
let _b = 17;
false
};
println!("End");
```
---
This lint will get masked by the `IF_SAME_THEN_ELSE` lint. I think it makes more sense to only emit one lint per if block. This means that the folloing example:
```rust
if ... {
let _a = 17;
} else {
let _a = 17;
}
```
Will only trigger the `IF_SAME_THEN_ELSE` lint and not the `SHARED_CODE_IN_IF_BLOCKS` lint.
