#17619 Add support for `--shard` to `lint`/`fix`/`fmt`/`check` New issue created by danxmoran Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For some large codebases,

./pants lint ::

and

./pants check ::

can take too long to run effectively as a single job in CI. You can run with

--changed-since

to mitigate this, but that introduces its own overhead and you can still end up running effectively everything for certain diffs. Describe the solution you'd like

./pants test

exposes a

--shard=k/N

option to help mitigate the same problem. I think it'd make sense to add the same flag to

lint

and

check

(and

fix

and

fmt

to keep parity with

lint

). Describe alternatives you've considered I could recreate the

--shard

calculation using

./pants list

and some creative shell - I suspect it'd be messy. pantsbuild/pants
