SqlServer.Rules v5.0.0 has been released, a major update to the open-source static code analysis library for SQL Server database projects. This release adds a large set of new design and performance rules (SRD0078–SRD0096, SRP0026–SRP0030), introduces SQL project/database option checks (SRD0700–SRD0706), and completes the migration from the legacy TSQLSmells package. The library helps teams catch T-SQL anti-patterns, naming issues, and performance problems at development and CI/CD build time rather than in production. Upgrade via the ErikEJ.DacFX.SqlServer.Rules NuGet package.
