PR fix notes

PR #86443: Fix incorrect GitHub link in ESLint config documentation

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

What?

This PR corrects an outdated GitHub link in the ESLint configuration documentation. The existing link pointed to the canary branch instead of the versioned next-15.5 tag.

Why?

The documentation page reflects Next.js 15.5, so the linked source file should match the same version. Leaving the link pointed at canary can lead to confusion, mismatched code, or 404s if paths change.

How?

Updated the incorrect link in docs/01-app/03-api-reference/05-config/03-eslint.mdx

Replaced:

/blob/canary/packages/eslint-config-next/index.js

with:

/blob/next-15.5/packages/eslint-config-next/index.js

Closes #86436

Additional Notes for Maintainers

This is a documentation improvement (no code changes).

Formatting preserved; file validated locally.

No tests required since this is a docs-only fix.

TL;DR

Update the broken links to point to the correct version, in this case, next-15-5, instead of canary.

Guidance

  • Verify the correct version of the documentation by checking the Next.js version being used (e.g., 15.5).
  • Update the links to point to the correct version, replacing canary with next-15-5 in the URL.
  • Check the documentation page for any other broken links that may need to be updated.
  • Consider reporting the issue to the Next.js documentation team to ensure the links are updated for all users.

Notes

The fix assumes that the correct version of the documentation is available on the GitHub repository. If the version is not available, the links may still be broken.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Update the links to point to the correct version, as this will allow users to access the correct documentation until the official documentation is updated.
