Since it would contain the location of the root directory, putting there would be circular. Hopefully the organization has a central location for their documentation that is somewhat organized (via SharePoint, or even a network share with folders). Reducing the number of things that a new hire would need to "just know" to a minimum should be a goal.
- joobus 9y ago> Hopefully the organization has a central location for their documentation that is somewhat organized... My office uses a combination of Redmine, Slack, email, gitlab, network drives, google docs, dropbox, some pdfs floating around, and a readme in the root of each repo...

- Roboprog 9y agoIf you have it, it's nice to have a build/CI server that has a UI showing all the projects in a dept/work-group and where they come from in source control.
