From c64248780977394ef3dcaceb9555c06968769daa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jarek Potiuk Date: Sun, 3 May 2026 17:42:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] =?UTF-8?q?docs:=20surface=20the=20apache/airflow-stew?= =?UTF-8?q?ard=20=E2=86=92=20apache/steward=20rename=20in=20README=20+=20A?= =?UTF-8?q?GENTS.md?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The repository is in the process of being renamed from `apache/airflow-steward` to `apache/steward` to reflect its project-agnostic identity. Surface the rename status prominently so adopters and casual visitors aren't confused by the legacy slug in clone URLs / submodule paths. Top-level README: - Title changes from `apache-steward` to `Apache Steward (to be renamed)` so the rename status shows up in every link / GitHub preview / search-result snippet. - Adds a `> Heads-up — rename in flight.` blockquote up front explaining the situation: rename target (`apache/steward`), why (project-agnostic, not Airflow-specific), what stays the same until the rename lands (clone URLs, submodule paths, CI integration — all path examples in the docs use the legacy slug verbatim), and what existing adopters need to do once it lands (a single `git remote set-url`). AGENTS.md: - Same `currently … to be renamed` phrasing in the `Repository purpose` section, with a pointer back to the README's heads-up block. doctoc TOC regenerated.
