Moved free-unknown_88.RULE to inactive directory as it was causing false positives when scanning casual documentation that mentions 'open source license'. This resolves issue aboutcode-org#4221 where ts-jest README was incorrectly flagged with LicenseRef-scancode-free-unknown. The rule matched only 3 words ('open source license') with low relevance (50), making it too broad and triggering on non-licensing contexts. Added test case to prevent regression: - tests/licensedcode/data/datadriven/unknown/ts-jest-no-false-positive.md - tests/licensedcode/data/datadriven/unknown/ts-jest-no-false-positive.md.yml Fixes: aboutcode-org#4221 Signed-off-by: Aliasghar Jawadwala <sharksurfauto@gmail.com>
