We love pull requests from everyone. By participating in this project, you agree to abide by the thoughtbot code of conduct. Here’s a quick guide:
- Fork the repository.
- Make your changes in a topic branch.
- Squash your commits into a single one (more on that here).
- Rebase against
origin/master, push to your fork and submit a pull request.
At this point you’re waiting on us. We like to at least comment on, if not accept, pull requests within three business days (and, typically, one business day). We may suggest some changes or improvements or alternatives.
Some things that will increase the chance that your pull request is accepted:
- Write your code according to the thoughtbot Style Guide
- Fix a bug, refactor code or expand an existing feature.
- Use the right syntax and naming conventions.
- Update parts of the documentation that are affected by your contribution.
Git Commit Messages
- Capitalize your commit messages.
