New: README.d/ is not mentioned in README
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221686
Bug ID: 221686
Summary: README.d/ is not mentioned in README
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: man-pages
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Regression: No
The README file for the Linux man-pages project has a section named “Files” that lists a bunch of different files and directories and describes them. The “Files” section mentions the CONTRIBUTING file, the CONTRIBUTING.d/ directory and the README file, but it does not mention the README.d/ directory. It would be better if the README mentioned the README.d/ directory.
