Overview

Forbids a method from returning the literal nil explicitly. The cop flags two patterns: a return nil statement anywhere inside the method body, and a method whose tail expression is the literal nil (whether it stands alone or appears as the last statement of a multi-statement body). Methods that omit return, use a bare return keyword, or merely happen to evaluate to nil through control flow are not flagged.
