Why
The dotnet/templating repository has been absorbed into dotnet/sdk: the template engine library (
Microsoft.TemplateEngine.*) lives in this repo. Several docs still instructed contributors to route templating changes and issues to the now-defunct external repo, which is misleading.What changed
.github/copilot-instructions.md: Removed the## External Dependenciessection that told agents to make templating changes in the external dotnet/templating repo and file issues there.template_feed/Microsoft.TemplateEngine.Authoring.Templates/README.md: Feedback/issue link now points to the dotnet/sdk repo.documentation/TemplateEngine/api/Inside-the-Template-Engine.md: Reworded the host description to "The .NET SDK includes one such host: the dotnet new CLI."documentation/TemplateEngine/authoring-tools/Localization.md: "each build of dotnet/templating repo" now reads "each build of the dotnet/sdk repo."Notes
Docs-only change.
documentation/TemplateEngine/README.mdalready describes the merge correctly and was left untouched. Historical issue-tracker links of the formhttps://github.com/dotnet/templating/issues/NNNNwere intentionally left as-is since they point to real archived issues.
