- Remove unused reference link in CONTRIBUTING.md
- Change the contributing_url for triagebot to the getting started page
|
|
The other places are more accurate and up-to-date.
- Link to `std-dev-guide` in CONTRIBUTING.md
Thom and Mara said the guide is in reasonably good shape, and it's tailored more closely to people working on the standard library.
- Link to CONTRIBUTING.md instead of rustc-dev-guide in the main readme
CONTRIBUTING.md has more information and also links the std-dev-guide.
- Link to forge for the list of tested platforms; the one in the readme
was hopelessly out of date.

Doc Jones mentioned that one of the things making it hard to get started
is that the amount of information is overwhelming, between the
dev-guide, contributing guide, and discussion platforms. This gives
people a single link they can click to ask for help.

Fixes #77215
As mentioned in #77215, the current CONTRIBUTING.md links to the rustc-dev-guide.
Even though the rustc-dev-guide has lots of useful information for contributors,
one is already confused by reading the first line of the current CONTRIBUTING.md.
> To get started, read the [Getting Started] guide in the [rustc-dev-guide].
This line tells the contributor to go and read the rustc-dev-guide. What is
the rustc-dev-guide? What does rustc even mean? These are some of the
questions that went into my head when reading this line as a first time
contributor. By explaining what the rustc-dev-guide is and some platforms
to get help, a new contributor understands what the first step is and the process
is much clearer. The `About the [rustc-dev-guide]` section explains what
the rustc-dev-guide is, what rustc is, and the purpose out of reading the
guide. The `Getting help` section points the user to some places where
they can get help, find a mentor, and introduce themsevles.

Change to link to "Contributing to Rust" chapter of `rustc` Dev Guide, primarily on the basis that the GitHub "first contribution" Issue "pop-up" says "Be sure to review the [contributing guidelines] and [code of conduct]" and links to this file.
When/if the guide/"Getting Started" section gets revised to not be `rustc`-specific the linked section can be changed.
In the meantime this prevents leading first time contributors into a confusing cul de sac.

Rename rustc guide
This is in preparation for https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-guide/issues/470
Needs to be merged after we actually rename the guide.
Have used this to rename:
`git grep -l 'rustc_guide' | xargs sed -i 's/rustc_guide/rustc_dev_guide/g'`
`git grep -l 'rustc-guide' | xargs sed -i 's/rustc-guide/rustc-dev-guide/g'`
`git grep -l 'rustc guide' | xargs sed -i 's/rustc guide/rustc dev guide/g'`

@lzutao what do you mean with that? Is this fixed by the new "May be fixed by #XXXXX"?
