Configuration documentation should provide concrete, platform-specific examples rather than generic placeholders, and use precise terminology to avoid confusion. Generic paths like `/path/to/repository` leave developers uncertain about actual implementation. Replace generic placeholders with realistic examples that show the actual structure and format expected: ``` # Instead of generic: common --registry="path/to/local/bcr/registry" # Provide platform-specific examples: # Windows: common --registry="file:///C:/Users/johndoe/bazel-central-registry-main" # Linux: common --registry="file:////home/johndoe/bazel-central-registry-main" ``` Additionally, ensure configuration instructions are complete by: - Explaining why certain configurations are needed - Providing context for workarounds or special cases - Using precise terminology (e.g., "Bazel modules" vs "Go modules") - Including references to relevant documentation for complex scenarios This prevents confusion and reduces back-and-forth questions about implementation details, making configuration setup more straightforward for developers.
