How to contribute

In the spirit of open source software, everyone is encouraged to help improve this project.

Your Pull Request

To make it easy to review and understand your change please keep the following things in mind before submitting your pull request:

  • Work on the latest possible state of ginatra/master
  • Create a branch which is dedicated to your change
  • Test your changes before creating a pull request (bundle exec rake)
  • If possible write a test case which confirms your change
  • Don't mix several features or bug-fixes in one pull request
  • Create a meaningful commit message
  • Explain your change (i.e. with a link to the issue you are fixing)
  • Keep it simple: don't overcomplicate things and add extra dependencies unless you have a special reason

IMPORTANT:

Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch first through the issue tracker with your idea so that the project's developers can help out and possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid frustration later on.

Thank you

Each contribution is extremely helpful - thank you!
