Contributions are welcome & greatly appreciated, every little bit helps in making Hy more awesome. Pull requests are great! We love them; here is a quick guide: - Fork the repo and create a topic branch for a feature/fix. Avoid making changes directly on the master branch. - All incoming features should be accompanied with tests. - Before you submit a PR, please run the tests and check your code against the style guide. You can do both of these things at once:: $ make d - Make commits into logical units, so that it is easier to track & navigate later. Before submitting a PR, try squashing the commits into changesets that are easy to come back to later. Also, make sure you don't leave spurious whitespace in the changesets; this avoids creation of whitespace fix commits later. - As far as commit messages go, try to adhere to the following: + Try sticking to the 50 character limit for the first line of Git commit messages. + For more detail/explainations, follow this up with a blank line and continue describing the commit in detail. - Finally, add yourself to the AUTHORS file (as a separate commit): you deserve it :) - All incoming changes need to be acked by 2 different members of Hylang's core team. Additional review is clearly welcome, but we need a minimum of 2 signoffs for any change. - If a core member is sending in a PR, please find 2 core members that doesn't include the PR submitter. The idea here is that one can work with the PR author, and a second acks the entire change set. - For documentation & other trivial changes, we're good to merge after one ACK. We've got low coverage, so it'd be great to keep that barrier low.
