-Requires a return statement (or non-`undefined` Promise resolve value)
-be present in a
-function body if a `@returns` tag (without a `void` or `undefined` type)
-is specified in the function's JSDoc comment block.
-
-Will also report `@returns {void}` and `@returns {undefined}` if `exemptAsync`
-is set to `false` and a non-`undefined` value is returned or a resolved value
-is found. Also reports if `@returns {never}` is discovered with a return value.
-
-Will also report if multiple `@returns` tags are present.

-<a name="require-returns-check-options"></a>
-## Options
-
-- `exemptGenerators`- Because a generator might be labeled as having a
-  `IterableIterator` `@returns` value (along with an iterator type
-  corresponding to the type of any `yield` statements), projects might wish to
-  leverage `@returns` in generators even without a` return` statement. This
-  option is therefore `true` by default in `typescript` mode (in "jsdoc" mode,
-  one might be more likely to take advantage of `@yields`). Set it to `false`
-  if you wish for a missing `return` to be flagged regardless.
-- `exemptAsync` - By default, functions which return a `Promise` that are not
-    detected as resolving with a non-`undefined` value and `async` functions
-    (even ones that do not explicitly return a value, as these are returning a
-    `Promise` implicitly) will be exempted from reporting by this rule.
-    If you wish to insist that only `Promise`'s which resolve to
-    non-`undefined` values or `async` functions with explicit `return`'s will
-    be exempted from reporting (i.e., that `async` functions can be reported
-    if they lack an explicit (non-`undefined`) `return` when a `@returns` is
-    present), you can set `exemptAsync` to `false` on the options object.
-- `reportMissingReturnForUndefinedTypes` - If `true` and no return or
-    resolve value is found, this setting will even insist that reporting occur
-    with `void` or `undefined` (including as an indicated `Promise` type).
-    Unlike `require-returns`, with this option in the rule, one can
-     *discourage* the labeling of `undefined` types. Defaults to `false`.
