The ideal PR

Thanks for offering your help.

In order to make our cooperation as smooth as possible, we have a couple of guidelines that we'd like you to follow:

  • If in doubt, please discuss your ideas first before providing a pull request. This often helps avoid a lot of unnecessary work.
  • Fork the repository.
  • Check out and work on your own fork.
  • Try to make your commits as atomic as possible. Related changes to three files should be committed in one commit.
  • The commit message should reference the issue number, e.g. [#5873] Add Setting.quoteEscaping to allow for alternative escaping of single quotes.
  • Try not to modify anything unrelated, i.e. don't make unimportant whitespace / formatting changes, which will just distract during review.
  • Don't worry about tests. Our unit and integration tests are not open source. If your change is substantial, we'll add tests ourselves.
  • Add your name to our jOOQ/src/main/resources/META-INF/ABOUT.txt file
  • Be sure you agree to transfer your rights to us (see below) before contributing.
