docs: add repository relocation banner to README#400
Merged
Conversation
## What Added an important notice banner at the top of the README informing users that the repository has moved from `github/contributors` to `github-community-projects/contributors`, with instructions to update their git remote. ## Why Users with existing clones still pointing at the old github/contributors remote need a clear, visible notification about the move and a copy-paste command to update their remote URL. ## Notes - Uses GitHub's `[!IMPORTANT]` alert syntax which only renders on GitHub — won't display as a callout in other markdown renderers Signed-off-by: jmeridth <jmeridth@gmail.com>
