Contributing to [project name]

These guidelines are derived from Angular Contribution Guidelines.

Git Commit Guidelines

We have very precise rules over how our git commit messages can be formatted. This leads to more readable messages that are easy to follow when looking through the project history. But also, we use the git commit messages to generate the AngularJS change log.

Commit Message Format

Each commit message consists of a header, a body and a footer. The header has a special format that includes a type, a scope and a subject:

<type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>

Any line of the commit message cannot be longer 100 characters! This allows the message to be easier to read on github as well as in various git tools.

Type

Must be one of the following:

  • feat: A new feature
  • fix: A bug fix
  • docs: Documentation only changes
  • style: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
  • refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug or adds a feature
  • perf: A code change that improves performance
  • test: Adding missing tests
  • chore: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation

Scope

The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For example geoLocator, geoSearch, sets, data, rmBasemap, rmNavigation, rmExport, etc...

Subject

The subject contains succinct description of the change:

  • use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
  • don't capitalize first letter
  • no dot (.) at the end

Body

Just as in the subject, use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes" The body should include the motivation for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.

Footer

The footer should contain any information about Breaking Changes and is also the place to reference GitHub issues that this commit Closes.

Breaking Changes

All breaking changes have to be mentioned in footer with the description of the change, justification and migration notes

	BREAKING CHANGE: isolate scope bindings definition has changed and
	    the inject option for the directive controller injection was removed.
	    
	    To migrate the code follow the example below:
	    
	    Before:
	    
	    scope: {
	      myAttr: 'attribute',
	      myBind: 'bind',
	      myExpression: 'expression',
	      myEval: 'evaluate',
	      myAccessor: 'accessor'
	    }
	    
	    After:
	    
	    scope: {
	      myAttr: '@',
	      myBind: '@',
	      myExpression: '&',
	      // myEval - usually not useful, but in cases where the expression is assignable, you can use '='
	      myAccessor: '=' // in directive's template change myAccessor() to myAccessor
	    }
	    
	    The removed `inject` wasn't generaly useful for directives so there should be no code using it.

Closes

Closed bugs should be listed on a separate line in the footer prefixed with Closes, Fixes or Resolves (notice capital letters) keyword like this:

Closes #234

or in case of multiple issues:

Closes #123, #245, #992

###Examples

chore(queryToggle): revert config

reset query toggle to default (show:true) in dev config

fix(datagrid): fix full-data transition in IE*

IE is so slow, it can't pick up nodes created by WET scripts when creating timelines,
so it won't animate side panel tab nodes.
Do not create this timeline if you can't find nodes; check if the timeline has 0 duration
just before the transition; if so, recreate the timeline.

Closes #8149

docs(help): entry for user added layers

chore(grunt): move task options to separate files

Tasks moved: uglify, json-minify, imagemin, htmlmin, cssmin, concat
Will be used with load-grunt-config.

Resolves #1234

docs(help): update dataset section

Closes #8223
