How to contribute

Things we will merge

Bugfixes
Performance improvements
Features that are likely to be useful to the majority of Liquid users

Things we won't merge

Code that introduces considerable performance degrations
Code that touches performance-critical parts of Liquid and comes without benchmarks
Features that are not important for most people (we want to keep the core Liquid code small and tidy)
Features that can easily be implemented on top of Liquid (for example as a custom filter or custom filesystem)
Code that does not include tests
Code that breaks existing tests

Workflow

Fork the Liquid repository
Create a new branch in your fork
If it makes sense, add tests for your code and/or run a performance benchmark
Make sure all tests pass (bundle exec rake)
Create a pull request
