    Refactor the upgrading from source docs · 4d101979
    Yorick Peterse authored
    Instead of requiring one separate document for every version (which is
    created by release managers), we now use a single document for both
    Community Edition and Enterprise Edition. This allows developers to add
    guidelines right away, instead of release managers having to determine
    what to add.
    
    Version specific upgrading instructions are placed in a separate
    section. This prevents instructions from lingering around for many
    versions should a developer forget to remove them. This also ensures
    that all instructions are kept in a single place, instead of being
    spread across different documents.
    
    A minor downside is that CE and EE guidelines now live in the same
    document, which could cause merge conflicts. Since we are working
    towards a single codebase, this should only be an issue until we merge
    the codebases together; something we expect to do in the coming months.
    
    This commit also removes all old upgrading instructions, but these can
    still be accessed using Git branch specific URLs (included in the
    updating README).
