Eric Pugh resolved SOLR-15682.
------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> Add a CONTRIBUTING file
> -----------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-15682
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15682
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Jan Høydahl
> Assignee: Eric Pugh
> Priority: Major
>
> As [discussed in
> dev-list|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/raa4a0538fb7b32ebf4ec2d9a26bf04680b001b2723b70633eb06bcb4%40%3Cdev.solr.apache.org%3E],
> we should add a {{CONTRIBUTING.md}} file to serve as the first introduction
> for how to contribute:
> {quote}Currently we have our wiki page
> [HowToContribute|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/HowToContribute],
> which is linked from README.md. But there has been complaints lately that
> this wiki page is old and needlessly complex / long.
> Some benefits of a CONTRIBUTING file are:
> * People immediately understand what to expect when they see the file
> (visibility)
> * GitHub has [built-in support for
> it|https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/setting-guidelines-for-repository-contributors]
> and will display a link when someone opens a PR.
> * We can author it from scratch, with better, clearer structure
> The file can of course rely on linking to dev-docs, wiki and website as
> needed, so the file can likely stay quite compact.
