1 Contributing to libmraa {#contributing}
4 libmraa is an opensource project and we are actively looking for people to help
7 - Writing platform supports for all types of boards running linux
8 - People to extend the functionality, API with useful functions
9 - Anything we haven't thought about :) Ideas always welcome!
11 The recommended method to contribute is to fork on github, and then send pull
12 requests to the main project. You can open issues if you find any bugs/have
15 If you'd rather not use github you are more than welcome to send git formatted
16 patches to brendan.le.foll@intel.com.
20 - Your code must build
21 - Commits must have a sign-off line by at least yourself
22 - Commits must be named <file/module>: Some decent description
23 - Try not to break master. In any commit.
24 - Try to split commits up logically, you will be asked to rebase them if they
26 - Try to stick to the established coding style regardless of your personal
27 feeling for it! Use clang-format (3.6+ required)
32 The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the
33 patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it
34 on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify
37 Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
39 By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
41 (a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
42 have the right to submit it under the open source license
43 indicated in the file; or
45 (b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
46 of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
47 license and I have the right under that license to submit that
48 work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
49 by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
50 permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
53 (c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
54 person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
57 (d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
58 are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
59 personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
60 maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
61 this project or the open source license(s) involved.
63 then you just add a line saying
65 Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
67 Using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
