Description:
The core/README.txt file that previously shipped with Drupal core has been converted to Markdown and renamed to core/README.md. Its focus has changed more towards shepherding new contributors into the Drupal ecosystem. The usage information it previously contained has been extracted into a separate core/USAGE.txt file.
If you are using the drupal/core-composer-scaffold plugin to exclude README.txt, you will want to update your scaffold configuration in composer.json to exclude the new file, similar to:
{
"extra": {
"drupal-scaffold": {
"file-mapping": {
"[web-root]/README.md": false
}
}
}
}
Impacts:
Site builders, administrators, editors
Site templates, recipes and distribution developers
