Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.There should be a note near the top of UPGRADE.txt about upgrading between major releases and the need to be running the latest version of your current major release before upgrading to the next major release.

axyjo CreditAttribution: axyjo commented+1, but I'll wait for someone else to RTBC.

EvanDonovan CreditAttribution: EvanDonovan commented"ie" should be "i.e." - I'll roll a new patch in a minute.
Comment #4
EvanDonovan CreditAttribution: EvanDonovan commentedCorrected spelling of "i.e." - also made a few other minor proofreading edits.
I'm not totally happy about this being the last bullet in the top list, since it takes away from the finality of "You have read through this entire document," but I don't see a better place for the warning, and it is absolutely essential that it be added to the document in a prominent place.
Hopefully someone can RTBC soon.
Comment #5
EvanDonovan CreditAttribution: EvanDonovan commentedHere's an alternative version with the new sentence not part of the bulleted list. I actually prefer this one, but I'll let the community decide.
Either way, I think the wording is good (I didn't change that from Beanjammin's original patch).
Comment #7
fgmI understand why you added the final dot, but it is likely to be confusing and limit copy/paste ability for users reading this in a downloaded text file. I think it would be better to leave it off.
Comment #8
EvanDonovan CreditAttribution: EvanDonovan commented@fgm: This patch fixes that. Also fixes the white space issue pointed out by marvil07.
I suffixed with D6 to prevent "wasting" a test bot. Let me know if I should've sent it to test bot. (I did test locally that it applied, and obviously it has no effect on code.)
I also attached the full updated file if that will help anyone review.

David_Rothstein CreditAttribution: David_Rothstein commentedLooks like a no-brainer to me.
I think the testbot probably could have survived your one-patch onslaught :) But yes, there is obviously no way this could break tests. (Unless there's a mistake in the instructions and the testbot is smart enough to read English and therefore is led astray by what it reads...)
