Hi,

I'd prefer using hyperlinks in docs (as it's supposed to be viewed
mainly in a browser) but these are the only variants (which looks too
ugly to me):

NOTE: link:../../blob/master/testcases/network/README.md[Network tests] use additional variables
in 'tst_net.sh'.
(this one at least keeps links to forks)

NOTE: https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/network/README.md[Network tests] use additional variables
in 'tst_net.sh'.

=> I'd be for giving up links.

Kind regards,
Petr

Given that test-writing-guidelines text is also on the LTP wiki the first one would not work anyways...

So yes I do agree that pointing out people to the relative location of
the README.md is probably the best we can do, acked.

It works when using '../../blob/master/testcases/network/README.md' works, see [1] :).

But unless Alexey objects, I'd be also for plain text version.

Kind regards,
