Contributor Guidelines
======================
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.
