A recent pull request, MDEV-38328, proposes adding a prompt to the MariaDB client and server logs encouraging users to "Star it on Git Hub." This initiative aims to increase the project's visibility by reaching 10,000 GitHub stars. The client prompt would include an additional line: "Help others discover Maria DB. Star it on Git Hub: https://github.com/MariaDB/server." Similarly, server logs will feature a "[Note] Help others discover Maria DB.

Star it on Git Hub: https://github.com/MariaDB/server" message. This change is designed for easy cherry-picking to older releases, allowing for future modifications to promote different objectives. A test file, `mysql-test/main/mysql-interactive.result`, has been updated to reflect these changes.
