Thank you. Now somebody needs to update the version of this file on the website.

Although I did that, I don't recommend using that URL as it's updated only irregularly. Yes, this is bad, but unfortunately savannah.gnu.org is still requiring CVS to update its website pages. Hardly any developer knows how to use CVS any more. Although I was a heavy CVS user two decades ago, I've forgotten too, and I have no idea why savannah is still stuck on CVS.

Anyway, to get back to the topic at hand, I suggest using this URL:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/plain/CONTRIBUTE

Similarly, for INSTALL.REPO, I suggest:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/plain/INSTALL.REPO
