chore(docs): drop the duplicate root CONTRIBUTING.md - #81
Conversation
The guide now lives at .github/CONTRIBUTING.md (GitHub's discovery location). A second CONTRIBUTING.md was left at the repository root by an earlier template pass, so the repo carried two guides. Its unique content is folded into the canonical guide before removal.

Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the duplicate-guide issue and confirms that the root file's unique setup content was preserved. However, it does not follow most of the required template sections, including Type of Change, Related Issues, Changes Made, Testing, Test Results, Checklist, Breaking Changes, and Reviewer Checklist. Resolution Complete the required pull request template. Mark the documentation update type, list the file changes, state whether related issues exist, record testing and results, complete the relevant checklist items, and confirm breaking-change and reviewer information.

- Line 346: Update the repository tree in the contributing guide to remove the
root CONTRIBUTING.md entry labeled “This file” and add the guide at
.github/CONTRIBUTING.md instead.
- Line 369: Update the bug report and feature request links in the contributing
guide to use ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md and ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.md,
removing the redundant .github/ prefix while preserving the existing link text.
- Around line 322-323: Update the documented Guix setup around the just check
and just test commands to ensure their required tools are available: declare
packages providing chpl and zig in manifest.scm, or explicitly document these
tools as manual prerequisites, and reference guix develop -m manifest.scm when
using the manifest-based setup.
- Around line 310-324: Update the setup and workflow code fences in the
contributing guide: add an opening sh fence before the git clone command, and
add the missing closing fence after [optional footer] so the subsequent
commit-message example retains its opening fence. Preserve the existing commands
and content.
- Around line 418-420: Update the earlier commit-message example and prefix list
to use lowercase Conventional Commit types such as feat, fix, refactor, docs,
and test, with an optional scope, and remove any conflicting capitalized-prefix
guidance while retaining the existing Conventional Commits rule.

Complete the setup and workflow code fences.
Add ```sh before git clone so line 324 closes the setup block. Then add a closing ``` after [optional footer]; line 419 becomes the opening fence for the commit-message example. Blank lines and language tags on the other fences are optional style changes.

GNU Guix manual guix develop manifest.scm default guix.scm
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In GNU Guix, use guix develop to enter an environment containing the build-time dependencies of a package or file. A project’s guix.scm is conventionally a package definition; when Guix discovers it in the current directory or an ancestor, it can use that definition to create the development environment. The equivalent explicit form is generally: guix develop --file=./guix.scm A manifest.scm instead evaluates to a manifest—a collection of packages—and is passed with the manifest option: guix develop --manifest=manifest.scm The Guix manual documents the same manifest mechanism for guix shell: a manifest can be saved as manifest.scm and supplied with -m manifest.scm [1]. The manifest format is also the declarative package-set format described in the package manual [2]. Important distinction: guix.scm normally describes a package, whereas manifest.scm describes an explicit package collection. If you explicitly use guix.scm with --file, pair it with development mode when you want dependencies rather than the package itself: guix develop --development --file=./guix.scm If both files are present, the available documentation summary reports that an automatically processed manifest.scm takes precedence over guix.scm; to force the latter, use --file=./guix.scm and development mode [3]. Thus, for the common cases: guix develop -m manifest.scm — develop from a manifest. guix develop — use the project’s discovered guix.scm when applicable. guix develop --development --file=guix.scm — explicitly develop from a package definition. The supplied search results do not include the full current guix develop manual section, so option-level details beyond these documented distinctions cannot be verified here. [4][1][2][3]

Declare the tools required by the documented Guix setup.
just check invokes chpl, and just test invokes the non-skipping test-zig target, which requires zig. manifest.scm declares neither tool. Add package specifications that provide chpl and zig, use guix develop -m manifest.scm, or document these tools as manual prerequisites.

Align the earlier commit-message guidance with Conventional Commits.
The earlier example and prefix list prescribe capitalised prefixes such as Add and Update, which do not match the Conventional Commits format shown here. Retain one rule and update the earlier example and prefix list to use lowercase Conventional Commit types, such as feat, fix, refactor, docs, and test, with an optional scope.

The guide lives at
.github/CONTRIBUTING.md(where GitHub looks for it). A secondCONTRIBUTING.mdsat at the repository root from an earlier template pass, so this repo carried two guides — the root one is invisible to GitHub's UI and would drift.Content preserved: the root file held setup steps absent from the canonical guide, so they are appended under "Local environment setup" rather than dropped. Nothing is lost.
Found while verifying the estate-wide guide relocation (the root
CONTRIBUTING.adocmoved; this.mdwas a separate, older file).
