You can contribute to the project by reporting bugs and submitting pull requests for code changes.
If you have problems using the Self C++ SDK, search for similar issues because someone else might have encountered your problem already. If no one else has previously reported your problem, submit a bug report.
If you want to contribute, follow these steps:
- Fork the repository.
- Develop and test your code changes.
* Respect the original code style guide.
* Create minimal diffs - disable on save actions like reformat source code or organize imports. If you think the source code needs to be reformatted, create a separate PR for this change.
* Check for any unnecessary whitespace by issuing
git diff --check
before you commit. - Ensure your code changes pass your tests.
- Commit your changes, following these guidelines:
* Use the present tense (for example,
"Add feature"
not"Added feature"
). * Use the imperative mood (for example,"Move cursor to …"
not"Moves cursor to …"
). * Include the appropriate Emoji from our Emoji cheatsheet. - Push your changes to your fork and submit a pull request to the master branch.
When you make commits or update the CHANGELOG, please start the commit message or update with one of the following applicable emoji. The emoji should not be used at the start of issue or pull request titles.
