Normally you have error notices in the following form in your CLI:

[L426:C63] W030: Expected an assignment or function call and instead saw an expression.

Now you can take that WXXX ID and add it to your options subobject. Simply add

"-WXXX" : true

for whatever notice you want to turn off. Keep in mind that you only can turn off all notices of a type and no specific notices on specific lines or lines in only single files. Still, you can add different tasks for different files and ignore different hints/notices that way.

Here's an example for grunt-contrib-jshint. Note: site.scripts comes from a YAML file that holds the config.

jshint : {
    dev : {
        options : {
            // Ignore: "Bad" line break
            "-W014" : true
        },
        src: [ "<%= site.scripts %>/**/*.js" ]
    }
}
