Readme makes reference to missing method

[heyvito]

Hi there, folks! Just a heads-up: README makes reference to VersionsFile#update_with, but there's no such method. For now I'll be just appending changes to the versions file just like RubyGems.org does (and recreating it from scratch every month through a job), but is there any "canonical" way of doing it? Otherwise, should that section I mentioned be removed?

Best wishes!

Current logic lives at https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems.org/blob/master/app/jobs/upload_versions_file_job.rb#L18-L24. It seems update_with is not needed, since append in README is explained at https://github.com/rubygems/compact_index?tab=readme-ov-file#versions section already. Would it make sense to remove it from readme? 🤔

Hi Josef! Thank you for pointing out the current logic!
I was wondering whether it would be better to remove it from the readme, or replacing it with other instructions. Wdyt?

@heyvito I think it is ok to just update the section pointing to /versions documentation explaining how to append gems using CompactIndex.versions(versions_file, extra_gems). Would you mind to open PR?
