This document describes contribution guidelines for x-markdown-css
.
The project x-markdown-css
uses Stylelint to manage the SCSS coding style in a holistic way. In the meantime, please:
- DO give priority to the current style of the project or file you're changing even if it diverges from the general guidelines or your preferences.
- DO NOT send PRs for style changes. For example, do not send PRs that are focused on changing
.stylelintrc
rules. - DO NOT send PRs for upgrading code to use newer language features, though it's ok to use newer language features as part of new code that's written.
- DO NOT send PRs for linting existing code.
- DO submit all code changes via pull requests (PRs) rather than through a direct commit. PRs will be reviewed and potentially merged by the repo maintainers after a peer review that includes at least one maintainer.
- DO give PRs short-but-descriptive names (e.g. "Fix layout drift (solve #123)", not just "Solve issue #123")
- DO refer to any relevant issues, and include keywords that automatically close issues when the PR is merged.
- DO tag any users that should know about and/or review the change.
- DO ensure each commit successfully builds and passes Stylelint. The entire PR must pass all tests in the Continuous Integration (CI) system before it'll be merged.
- DO address PR feedback in an additional commit(s) rather than amending the existing commits, and only rebase/squash them when necessary. This makes it easier for reviewers to track changes.
- BE CAREFUL OF submitting "work in progress" PRs. Generally, a PR should only be submitted when it is considered ready for review and subsequent merging by the contributor.
- DO NOT send PRs only for changing build environments (begins with
chore:
), although the tool(s) might be outdated. - DO NOT fix merge conflicts using a merge commit. Prefer
git rebase
. - DO NOT mix independent, unrelated changes in one PR. Separate real product/test code changes from larger code formatting/dead code removal changes. Separate unrelated fixes into separate PRs, especially if they are in different partials.
- The last one and also the most important: DO NOT destroy the existing codebase.
