How to contribute

Thank you for taking the time to contribute. Let's keep moving forward together to make ugrep the best Universal grep utility on the planet.

The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to ugrep.

Contribution and participation in this project requires adherence to our code of conduct.

Did you find a bug?

Ensure the bug was not already reported by searching on GitHub under Issues.
If you're unable to find an open issue addressing the problem, open a new one. Be sure to include a title and clear description, as much relevant information as possible, and a code sample or an executable test case demonstrating the expected behavior that is not occurring.

Use the Google C++ Style Guide as a guideline to write the source code for the patch.
Open a new GitHub pull request with the patch.
Write a clear log message for your commits. One-line messages are fine for small changes, but bigger changes should look like this:
```
$ git commit -m "A brief summary of the commit
> 
> A paragraph describing what changed and its impact."
```

We love to hear from you! Contact us.
