This will allow us to get rid of deprecation warnings that appear when
using 3.3, and also get rid of extra logic for 2.13 required because of
the progress logger.
This commit rewords the note regarding the squashing of pull request
commits to make it clearer that the note applies to everyone and not
just external contributors.
The CONTRIBUTING.md file can be in the root directory or
in the .github directory and will still be used for
the contributing guidelines on Github.
Moved back to the root directory so that it is more
visible outside Github
This commits adds an issue template for contributors that open bug
reports or feature requests.
Additionally, this commit adds a .github subdirectory to the project and
moves the CONTRIBUTING.md file to that directory.
Closes#16773
Currently when importing projects into eclipse you need to run 'mvn
eclipse:eclipse' on the command line to generate the poject files. This
means that when the pom changes you need to re-run the command on the
command line to reflect those changes in the project in eclipse. This
commit allows the developer to import the project as an existing maven
project (can be shared using git after import) and then allows the
application to be run inside eclipse using the .launch file in
/dev-tools enabling easy debugging of the application within eclipse
without requiring a maven build.
