Contributing

SOCI development workflow is based on git-flow branching model.

1. Requirements:

• Install git-flow extensions
  • from original implementation at nvie/gitflow
  • or forks: petervanderdoes/gitflow in Shell htgoebel/gitflow in Python)

1. Fork the repository. Then, run:

git clone [email protected]:<username>/soci.git
cd soci

1. Enable your clone with the git-flow:

git flow init -d

1. Create a feature branch (aka topic branch):

git flow feature start <your feature>

Please remember:

• All new work (new features, non-emergency bug fixes) must be done in a new feature branch.
• Give your feature branches sensible names. If you’re working on a ticket, use the ticket number as the feature branch name (e.g. feature/issue-1234).

1. Then, do work and commit your changes.

git flow feature publish <your feature>

1. When done, open a pull request to your feature branch.
