Golangci-lint: exclude-use-default in config file not working

[eraserix]

I cannot get "exclude-use-default" in the configuration file to work. Passing this flag on the commandline works fine, but it seems to be ignored when put into the configuration file.

The exclude-use-default option needs to be under the issues object.

issues:
  exclude-use-default: false

You aren't having this problem, but I did. golint is not enabled by default.

Whoops, sorry for the noise. This was absolutely the problem. Thanks!
