./Documentation/technical contains not only API documentation but also several other documents describing Git implementation topics and thus is the place someone wanting to join Git development should look at. So IMHO CodingGuidelines and SubmittingPatches should also be there. (One could even consider renaming ./technical to ./internal to stress this point and get rid of the rather generic "technical" ...) In contrast ./howto implies containing documents a Git *user* might need to solve some tricky problems (and to this end maintain-git.txt and new-command.txt should also be moved to ./technical (sorry for being the guy who just moved ./technical/api-command to ./howto/new-command.txt ;-)). ./Documentation itself should only contain the command manpages and tutorials. ----- Original Nachricht ---- Von: Ramkumar Ramachandra <artagnon@xxxxxxxxx> An: Thomas Ackermann <th.acker@xxxxxxxx> Datum: 30.12.2012 12:52 Betreff: Re: [PATCH 0/3] Move CodingGuidelines and SubmittingPatches to ./Documentation/technical > Thomas Ackermann wrote: > > CodingGuidelines and SubmittingPatches are IMHO a little bit hidden in > ./Documentation > > and with respect to their content should be better placed in > ./Documentation/technical. > > I don't think SubmittingPatches and CodingGuidelines belong to > Documentation/technical; that location is mostly reserved for API > documentation.
