2024-03-28treewide: Switch markdown placeholder from "..." to <...>Janne Heß1-6/+6
We use angle brackets since they look a lot like a placeholder while also being valid nix code, as suggested by roberth here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/299554#discussion_r1541797970
2024-03-28treewide: Fix all Nix ASTs in all markdown filesJanne Heß1-48/+60
This allows for correct highlighting and maybe future automatic formatting. The AST was verified to work with nixfmt only.
2024-02-23CONTRIBUTING.md: change table column order for stagingbenaryorg1-7/+7
The graph right above the table has the order as `master` ⇒ `staging-next` ⇒ `staging`. This corresponds with the workflow, i.e. automatic merges happen in that direction and the manual merging is in reverse direction of that. As a first time reader of this document the table was very confusing due to the disparity of that. With this change the table should read more fluently for people not familiar with the workflow since the table follows the step-by-step flow of commits. Signed-off-by: benaryorg <binary@benary.org>
2024-02-12CONTRIBUTING.md: Sandboxing is enabled by default on Linuxibbem1-10/+8
The fact that sandboxing is already enabled by default is mentioned in the pull request template. Hence, it might be confusing to ask to enable sandboxing in CONTRIBUTING.md. Also follow the `one sentence per line` guideline. Co-authored-by: Silvan Mosberger <github@infinisil.com>

2023-12-06CONTRIBUTING.md: Update markdown emphasising syntaxSilvan Mosberger1-6/+6
GitHub supported special markdown syntax for emphasising blocks for some time. This was however a beta feature, and still is, so it's subject to changes. Recently such a change happened: The syntax is different now. See https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/16925 for more information

2023-08-20CONTRIBUTING: remove suggestion about the order of argumentsAnderson Torres1-2/+0
Particularities about style should be enforced at the tooling level (linters, code beautifiers etc.). Otherwise, it adds more weight on the PR reviewing, distracting both authors and reviewers from the substance of the changes.
