Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-16544:
------------------------------------
This Jira duplicates SOLR-16121 and SOLR-15682. There the proposal is to add a
top-level CONTRIBUTING.md, which is natively understood by GitHub.
See comments in those issues for backround.
I'd prefer a light-weight CONTRIBUTING.md file, with links into details on each
topic (git/branches, gradle, PRs etc)
> Improve documentation on "How to Contribute"
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-16544
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16544
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Justin Sweeney
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently the main location for information on how to contribute to the Solr
> open source project is here:
> [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/HowToContribute.|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/HowToContribute]
> As colleagues I work with are increasing our contributions to the Solr
> community, we found this documentation difficult to parse and it seems like
> it could use some love.
> My idea is to write up the current best practices for contributing within the
> dev-docs README in Github:
> [https://github.com/apache/solr/blob/main/dev-docs/README.adoc] and link to
> that from the Solr reference docs to make it more easily findable. This will
> provide the information for how to contribute in a version controlled
> location, making updates easier in the future as well.
