Summary

README.md is the entry point for the users of the images. Everything about generating the files of this repository and building, checking and testing the images moves to a new CONTRIBUTING.md. GitHub links that file on the pages for a new issue and a new pull request.

Changes

  • CONTRIBUTING.md: the sections "File generation", "Building in CI", "Building and testing locally" and "PHP extension builds" from the README, one heading level up. The content is unchanged; only "the banner at the top of this README" and "the quick start above" become links to the README.
  • README.md: the heading "Build process" stays with one sentence and a link to CONTRIBUTING.md, so links to README.md#build-process still lead there.
  • AGENTS.md: CONTRIBUTING.md in the table of documentation files, the README row without "build process", and "the commands in CONTRIBUTING.md" in "When to update it".
  • docs/README.md: the link for dockerfile-build-env goes to "Building in CI" in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Docs

Change Check
The four sections in CONTRIBUTING.md diff of the removed README lines against CONTRIBUTING.md: only the heading levels and the two links differ
Links in README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, AGENTS.md, docs/**/*.md A script resolves all 134 relative links and their anchors: none broken

How it was verified

Check Result
Generated files No file under docker/, .github/workflows/build.yaml or the banner changes, so "Validate Automation" is not affected

README.md is the entry point for the users of the images. How the files
of this repository are generated and how the images are built, checked
and tested moves to CONTRIBUTING.md without a change of content; only
the two references to the README become links. GitHub links the file on
the pages for a new issue and a new pull request.

README.md keeps the heading "Build process" with a link to the new file,
so links to it still lead there. AGENTS.md lists CONTRIBUTING.md among
the documentation, and docs/README.md links to it.
