From https://embeddedartistry.com/blog/2017/3/7/clang-weverything :


“Clang helpfully provides a flag called -Weverything. Unlike -Wall, the -Weverything flag really will enable all warnings. This flag is especially useful if you are a warning lover - new warnings will automatically be enabled when you upgrade clang/Xcode.  


Turning -Weverything can be an eye-opening experience, even for those who religiously squash warnings. I often turn on -Weverything temporarily to review any of the less-common warnings and see what's worth fixing in my code base.”
