Dec 1, 2025December 2025 (rucio/documentation): Focused on strengthening documentation accuracy and readability to amplify user adoption and developer efficiency. Delivered two core documentation improvements: (1) User-facing CLI Documentation Enhancements—replaced short-form options with long-form equivalents across docs and corrected test-path guidance to ensure accurate testing instructions; (2) Type Annotations Documentation Progress and Clarifications—consolidated guidance, removed outdated statements about lacking type annotations, clarified Python 2 deprecation notes, and improved code-block formatting for SQLAlchemy types. In addition, broad grammar, capitalization, and terminology polish across the docs improved overall quality and consistency. These changes reduce onboarding friction, improve test reliability, and align documentation with the current codebase and tooling.
