We love pull requests. Here's a quick guide:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Fork the repo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Run the tests. We only take pull requests with passing tests, and it's great
|
|
|
|
to know that you have a clean slate: `bundle && rake`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Add a test for your change. Only refactoring and documentation changes
|
|
|
|
require no new tests. If you are adding functionality or fixing a bug, we need
|
|
|
|
a test!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Make the test pass.

|
5. Update NEWS.md with a brief description of your changes under the HEAD
|
|
|
|
heading.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Push to your fork and submit a pull request.

At this point you're waiting on us. We like to at least comment on, if not
|
|
|
|
accept, pull requests within three business days (and, typically, one business
|
|
|
|
day). We may suggest some changes or improvements or alternatives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some things that will increase the chance that your pull request is accepted,
|
|
|
|
taken straight from the Ruby on Rails guide:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use Rails idioms and helpers
|
|
|
|
* Include tests that fail without your code, and pass with it
|
|
|
|
* Update the documentation, the surrounding one, examples elsewhere, guides,
|
|
|
|
whatever is affected by your contribution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Syntax:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Two spaces, no tabs.
|
|
|
|
* No trailing whitespace. Blank lines should not have any space.
|
|
|
|
* Prefer &&/|| over and/or.
|
|
|
|
* MyClass.my_method(my_arg) not my_method( my_arg ) or my_method my_arg.
|
|
|
|
* a = b and not a=b.
|
|
|
|
* Follow the conventions you see used in the source already.
|
|

And in case we didn't emphasize it enough: we love tests!
