Summary

Add a file with instructions and basic information on how to collaborate in the repository.

The idea is to provide information for first-time contributors or who are only going to improve or fix some XML file without anything else. This file collects the doubts and errors that I have seen that some new contributors have had.

Any correction or improvement in the text is appreciated (especially, I would appreciate if you could check the wording).

I think this is very good thing to have.
But perhaps we just should add that to the README.md that is prominently shown on e.g. https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/syntax-highlighting
The README anyways already contains a "Adding unit tests for a syntax definition" that could be replaced with this.

  • Add collaboration guide in the README file

I put it all in the README. I also corrected the repository, I had not noticed that this repository was already in GitLab!
