Summary of Changes

Hello @ti-chi-bot, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request primarily updates the hardware-and-software-requirements.md documentation to provide explicit guidance on supported file systems for TiDB deployments. It also refines related terminology for consistency and updates the link checker's ignore list, potentially resolving issues with external documentation links.

Highlights

  • Documentation Update: Added a crucial note to the hardware-and-software-requirements.md file, specifying that TiDB officially supports XFS and Ext4 file systems, and advises against using others for production environments.
  • Terminology Refinement: Standardized terminology in hardware-and-software-requirements.md by changing 'Disk space requirements' to 'Storage requirements' for improved clarity and consistency.
  • Link Checker Configuration & Merge Artifact: Updated the .lycheeignore file by adding a significant number of new external URLs to be excluded from link checks. This change notably includes merge conflict markers within the committed content, suggesting an uncleaned merge or cherry-pick resolution.

Code Review

This pull request adds a note about supported filesystems to the documentation and renames a related section for clarity. The changes are generally good, but I've found a critical issue in .lycheeignore where merge conflict markers were left in the file. I've also provided a minor stylistic suggestion for the new documentation content in hardware-and-software-requirements.md to improve readability and adhere to the style guide.

.lycheeignore Outdated
