# Contributing to this project
|
|
|
|
Contributions in the form of pull requests, issues or just general feedback,
|
|
are always welcome. Please take a moment to review this document in order to
|
|
make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved.
|
|
|
|
Following these guidelines helps to communicate that you respect the time of
|
|
the developers managing and developing this open source project. In return,
|
|
they should reciprocate that respect in addressing your issue or assessing
|
|
patches and features.
|
|
|
|
## Using the issue tracker
|
|
|
|
The issue tracker is the preferred channel for [bug reports](#bugs),
|
|
[features requests](#features) and [submitting pull
|
|
requests](#pull-requests), but please respect the following restrictions:
|
|
|
|
* Please **do not** use the issue tracker for personal support requests (use
|
|
[Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com) or IRC).
|
|
* Please **do not** derail or troll issues. Keep the discussion on topic and
|
|
respect the opinions of others.

## Bug reports
|
|
|
|
A bug is a _demonstrable problem_ that is caused by the code in the repository.
|
|
Good bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you!
|
|
|
|
Guidelines for bug reports:
|
|
|
|
1. **Use the GitHub issue search** — check if the issue has already been
|
|
reported.
|
|
2. **Check if the issue has been fixed** — try to reproduce it using the
|
|
latest `master` or development branch in the repository.
|
|
3. **Isolate the problem** — create a reduced test case.
|
|
|
|
A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more
|
|
information. Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. What is
|
|
your environment? What steps will reproduce the issue? What browser(s) and OS
|
|
experience the problem? What would you expect to be the outcome? All these
|
|
details will help people to fix any potential bugs.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
> Short and descriptive example bug report title
|
|
>
|
|
> A summary of the issue and the browser/OS environment in which it occurs. If
|
|
> suitable, include the steps required to reproduce the bug.
|
|
>
|
|
> 1. This is the first step
|
|
> 2. This is the second step
|
|
> 3. Further steps, etc.
|
|
>
|
|
> `<url>` - a link to the reduced test case
|
|
>
|
|
> Any other information you want to share that is relevant to the issue being
|
|
> reported. This might include the lines of code that you have identified as
|
|
> causing the bug, and potential solutions (and your opinions on their
|
|
> merits).

## Feature requests
|
|
|
|
Feature requests are welcome. But take a moment to find out whether your idea
|
|
fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to *you* to make a strong
|
|
case to convince the project's developers of the merits of this feature. Please
|
|
provide as much detail and context as possible.
|

|
|
## Pull requests
|
|
|
|
Good pull requests - patches, improvements, new features - are a fantastic
|
|
help. They should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated
|
|
commits.
|
|
|
|
**Please ask first** before embarking on any significant pull request (e.g.
|
|
implementing features, refactoring code, porting to a different language),
|
|
otherwise you risk spending a lot of time working on something that the
|
|
project's developers might not want to merge into the project.
|
|
|
|
Please adhere to the coding conventions used throughout a project (indentation,
|
|
accurate comments, etc.) and any other requirements (such as test coverage).
|
|
|
|
Follow this process if you'd like your work considered for inclusion in the
|
|
project:
|
|
|
|
1. [Fork](http://help.github.com/fork-a-repo/) the project, clone your fork,
|
|
and configure the remotes:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Clone your fork of the repo into the current directory
|
|
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/<repo-name>
|
|
# Navigate to the newly cloned directory
|
|
cd <repo-name>
|
|
# Assign the original repo to a remote called "upstream"
|
|
git remote add upstream https://github.com/<upstream-owner>/<repo-name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. If you cloned a while ago, get the latest changes from upstream:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout <dev-branch>
|
|
git pull upstream <dev-branch>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to
|
|
contain your feature, change, or fix:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Commit your changes in logical chunks and use descriptive commit messages.
|
|
Use [interactive rebase](https://help.github.com/articles/interactive-rebase)
|
|
to tidy up your commits before making them public.
|
|
|
|
5. Locally merge (or rebase) the upstream development branch into your topic branch:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git pull [--rebase] upstream <dev-branch>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
6. Push your topic branch up to your fork:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git push origin <topic-branch-name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
7. [Open a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/)
|
|
with a clear title and description.
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT**: By submitting a patch, you agree to allow the project owner to
|
|
license your work under the same license as that used by the project.
