README did not state which Taskwarrior versions the app supports.

Adds a Compatibility section mapping:

  • Taskwarrior 3.x -> TaskChampion sync (recommended)
  • Taskwarrior 2.x -> Legacy TaskServer (taskd)

Also updates Syncing intro + both backend paragraphs, and TOC. Matches in-app profile modes Taskchampion (v3) / TaskServer.

Fixes #625

Checklist

  • Documentation has been updated to reflect the changes
  • Code follows the established coding style guidelines

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Documented compatibility between Taskwarrior 3.x with TaskChampion and Taskwarrior 2.6.2 with Legacy TaskServer (taskd), including profile modes and supported server options.
    • Updated sync guidance to identify the backend for each version, note TaskServer’s server-side data copy, and provide self-hosting information for TaskChampion.
    • Marked the Docker image as archived upstream.

Adds Compatibility section mapping Taskwarrior 3.x to TaskChampion
and 2.x to Legacy TaskServer, matching in-app profile modes
(Taskchampion v3 / TaskServer).

Fixes CCExtractor#625

Walkthrough

The README documents compatibility between Taskwarrior 3.x and Taskwarrior 2.6.2, including their sync backends and profile modes. It also updates syncing guidance for self-hosting, server-side data copies, and the Docker image’s upstream status.

Changes: Taskwarrior Compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document version-specific sync options
README.md
The table of contents and compatibility section identify supported Taskwarrior versions, matching backends, and profile modes. Syncing guidance describes TaskChampion self-hosting, a server-side data copy for TaskServer, and the Docker image as archived upstream.

Priority: Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Change: Other

Suggested reviewers: mabudalam

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to b5384

The documentation accurately presents the supported Taskwarrior versions and qualifies the archived Docker option; no actionable merge risk remains.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change, which is documenting supported Taskwarrior versions in the README. The raw summary and objectives confirm the README now maps Taskwarrior 3.x to TaskChampion and 2.6.2 to Legacy TaskServer. The title is short, specific, and uses the 'docs:' convention.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description explains the problem (README did not state supported Taskwarrior versions), lists the added Compatibility section and the Syncing and TOC updates, and links issue #625. It follows the template's Description and Fixes sections and includes the documentation checklist item. It omits a Screenshots section, which is optional for a docs-only change. The template's remaining checklist items (tests, code style, passing tests) are not marked, which is acceptable for a README-only change.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #625 asks the README to state whether Taskwarrior 2, 3, or both are supported. README.md states support for Taskwarrior 2.6.2 and 3.x, and maps each version to its sync backend. The Compatibility and Syncing sections provide the required decision-making information. No automated tests apply to this documentation-only requirement.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The pull request changes only README.md. The table of contents, Compatibility section, Syncing descriptions, self-hosting link, and archived Docker note all relate to documenting the supported versions and their sync backends. No unrelated code or configuration changes are present.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 0 functions across 0 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Mark the Docker image as deprecated or replace it.

The linked ogarcia/docker-taskd repository is archived and marked deprecated. Taskwarrior also lists docker-taskd as dormant and archived. The new compatibility section directs Taskwarrior 2.x users to this section, so this entry should not appear as an unqualified setup option. (github.com)

remote copy as a server copy, not an automatic backup; keep backup claims
separate or point readers to the backup guidance.
- Line 53: Update the README’s TaskServer compatibility references to specify
Taskwarrior 2.6.2 instead of all 2.x releases, including the table of contents,
version-support description, compatibility table, profile-mode guidance, and
sync-backend descriptions. Preserve references to Taskwarrior 3.x.
