Johanna Amann commented on BIT-1413:
------------------------------------

After playing around for a bit - it is basically impossible to create something 
here that works in sphinx and in github (the links end up broken in one of the 
two cases).

The current solution is to change the phrasing somewhat, so it does not look 
odd when the links are not present on GitHub and leave everything else as is.

Besides this, everything in this ticket is done. Closing.

> If a README file doesn't have an extension, GitHub will parse it as Markdown. 
> Because our README files are ReST, this results in some ugly (and not very 
> useful) READMEs when visiting the repository on GitHub.
> For example, see: https://github.com/bro/btest#readme
> There are two options we could take to fix this: rename README to README.rst, 
> or create a symlink. I tried out the symlink option here, and I think the 
> result is much more useful: https://github.com/grigorescu/btest#readme
> The affected repos are:
> binpac
> bro
> bro-aux
> bro-plugins
> bro-scripts
> broccoli
> broccoli-perl
> broccoli-python
> broccoli-ruby
> broctl (broctl's README just instructs users to see doc/broctl.rst. This 
> could just be a symlink)
> broker
> bromagic (this can probably be deleted?)
> btest
> capstats
> time-machine
> trace-summary
