Contributing

If you want to contribute to this project and make it better, your help is very welcome. Remember that the the noblest of all contributions is a good, clean pull request.

Getting Started

  • Make sure you have a GitHub account.
  • Create a personal fork of the project on GitHub.
  • Clone the fork on your local machine. Your remote repo on GitHub is called origin.
  • Add the original repository as a remote called upstream.
    • Run git remote add upstream https://github.com/luigidifraia/ByteBoozer2.git.
  • If you created your fork a while ago be sure to pull upstream changes into your local repository.
    • To pull from master, run git pull upstream master.
  • Create a new topic branch to work on. Branch from develop if it exists, else from master.
    • To create a topic branch my-contribution based on master, run git checkout -b my-contribution master.
  • Implement/fix your feature(s); comment your code.
  • Follow the code style of the project, including indentation.
  • Add or change the documentation as needed.
  • Make commits of logical and atomic units.
  • Push your changes to the topic branch in your fork of the repository.
    • To push to my-contribution, run git push origin my-contribution.
  • From your fork open a pull request in the correct branch. Target this project's develop branch if there is one, else go for master.
  • If the maintainer requests further changes, just push them to your topic branch. The pull request will be updated automatically.
  • Once the pull request is approved and merged you can pull the changes from upstream to your local repository and delete your extra branch(es).
