| | | | | | | | | | | | | * CONTRIBUTE: Mention URLs and info nodes more consistently, avoiding possibly-confusing punctuation adjacent to a URL, and giving full shell commands for 'info'.

Better document emacs-NN branches and how they are merged. * admin/notes/git-workflow: Change emacs-24 to emacs-25, and trunk to master. This file still needs work.
