- I fixed a typo with "lowerecase"
- I elaborated on the prefix before elaborating
on the rest of the message (i.e. went in correct
order).
- I split out the provision example (since we
talk about it some depth).
- I added more positive examples.
- I removed the distracting italics around the
good commit messages.
- I moved the "gather_subscriptions" commit to
the bottom of the list, since we elaborate
on that below the list.
Adds an explicit explanation to help contributors avoid common mistakes
like capitalization errors, missing trailing periods, and incorrectly
prefixing the name of a subsystem.
Fixes#1535.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".
Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.
Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue.
Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719Fixes#11087.
Move docs/tutorials/documenting-api-endpoint.md to
docs/documentation/api.md.
This makes it easier to find when browsing the complete set of
materials on writing Zulip documentation.
Add references to TypeScript in documentation where appropriate, such
as in example bash commands and discussions of the file structure.
Add a new section to the Reading List with TypeScript resources.
Also update `.editorconfig` to support ".ts" files.
Fix part of #12000.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as
to `.md` files to point to the corresponding `.html` files, so this
migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.
This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.
Fixes: #11087.
help.github.com seems to have a bug where HEAD on a redirected page
returns 404. This causes tools/test-documentation to fail. Fix it by
skipping the redirects.

The testing section is more appropriate, since it's fundamentally part
of our CI system.
While we're at it, fix the fact that we were linking to GitHub, not
ReadTheDocs, in the run-mypy output.
This quiets the last of the warnings that Sphinx was giving us about
documents not being in any toctree, now that we've explicitly told it
with `:orphan:` about the documents we intentionally don't link there.
This updates the developer documentation to recommend `git clone -c`
to set the git pull mode to be rebase by default in the repository
configuration.
The hope is that this will help minimize how often new contributors
end up accidentally messing up their PRs by using `git pull`.
Tweaked by tabbott to fix broken links and optimize the language.
Fixes: #7022.
