CONTRIBUTING is preferred over CONTRIBUTING.md when both are available
Summary
When displaying contribution guidelines for a project, if both text and markdown versions are available, the markdown version should be preferred. (This is how it works when both README and README.md are present, for example.)
Steps to reproduce
In a project that already has CONTRIBUTING.md:
pandoc -s -t html CONTRIBUTING.md | w3m -dump -cols 75 -O ascii -T text/html > CONTRIBUTING
git add CONTRIBUTING
- commit and push
- review "contribution guidelines" for the project
- observe that it displays CONTRIBUTING as plain text, not CONTRIBUTING.md as formatted text, even though both files exist
This can currently be observed in situ at https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/new
What is the current bug behavior?
The "contribution guidelines" link points to blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The "contribution guidelines" link points to blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md (if it exists, which on my project it does).
