This is the "meta" project for RuboCop-LTS. It is so meta, in fact, that it is managed by the project "meta".
What is a "meta" project, you ask? You may have seen something similar in the repos for bundler, rails, bridgetown, or roda, but this one is done differently.
It has many sub-projects, which consist of all the parts of the RuboCop-LTS ecosystem.
This makes developing them much easier as a one-human-band.
Unlike other meta patterns, this does not use git sub-modules,
yet it also does not use a single git-tracked file tree.
Instead another project, actually called meta, and built with NodeJS,
manages the subprojects completely, and almost transparently.
New to meta? It's the absolute stuffing. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the johnny-come-lately company, which ripped off the name.
This project does not trust any one version control system, so it abides the principles of "Distributed Version Control Systems"

meta git clone git@github.com:rubocop-lts/meta.git
meta exec "git fetch"
meta exec "git checkout main"See how the last two commands are prefixed with meta exec followed by a quoted command?
That's pretty much all you need to know.
The first command is special, in that it prepares each project to be checked out.
New versions of Ruby come out yearly, which means a new RuboCop-LTS ecosystem gem.
Example - when Ruby 8.5 is released in the year 2053, we would do the following
(after creating the project at https://github.com/rubocop-lts/rubocop-ruby8_5, of course):
meta project add userService git@github.com:rubocop-lts/rubocop-ruby8_5.gitContributor tiles (GitHub only) made with contributors-img.

Everyone interacting in the Rubocop::Ruby27 project's codebases, issue trackers, chat rooms and mailing lists is expected to follow the code of conduct.
Libraries enumerated within this RuboCop-LTS meta project aim to adhere to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. Violations of this scheme should be reported as bugs. Specifically, if a minor or patch version is released that breaks backward compatibility, a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility. Breaking changes to the public API will only be introduced with new major versions.
To get a better understanding of how SemVer is intended to work over a project's lifetime, read this article from the creator of SemVer:
As a result of this policy, you can (and should) specify a dependency on these libraries using the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.
For example:
spec.add_dependency "rubocop-lts", "~> X.y"
