We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible. There are a few guidelines we need contributors to follow so that we are able to process requests as efficiently as possible. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact one of the maintainers.
- Make sure you have a GitHub account
- Submit the RMS Contributor License Agreement
- Submit a ticket for your issue, assuming one does not already exist.
- Clearly describe the issue including steps to reproduce when it is a bug.
- Make sure you fill in the earliest version that you know has the issue.
- Fork the repository on GitHub
- Create a topic branch off of
master
before you start your work. - Please avoid working directly on the
master
branch. - Make commits of logical units.
- You may be asked to squash unnecessary commits down to logical units.
- Check for unnecessary whitespace with
git diff --check
before committing. - Write meaningful, descriptive commit messages.
- Please follow existing code conventions when working on a file.
- Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
- Submit a pull request to the repository maintained by the RMS organization.
- After feedback has been given we expect responses within two weeks. After two weeks we may close the pull request if it isn't showing any activity.
- Bug fixes or features that lack appropriate tests may not be considered for merge.
- Changes that lower test coverage may not be considered for merge.
In order to accept your pull request, we need you to submit a RMS CLA. You only need to do this once to work on any of RMS's open source projects. If you are submitting a RMS CLA as an employee or contractor, ensure that you have obtained permission to enter into the CLA and submit contributions on behalf of your employer.
