Workflow

  1. Pick an issue to work on and drop a line there that you're working on that.
  2. Wait for an approve from one of core contributors.
  3. Fork the project and work right in the develop branch.
  4. Work on the issue and file a PR back into develop.
  5. Wait until your PR is reviewed by 2 core developers and merged.

Code Style

Please, note that we follow Effective Go and CodeReviewComments in our code.

Keep history clean

  1. Squash PR before merging. You can do it either with GitHub API by merging with "Squash and merge" or locally if you want to preserve your signature. It is ok to merge multiple commits with "Rebase and merge" if they are logically separate.

  2. Preserve as much history as possible. If you need to re-name file use git mv - it will preserve git history.
