1 | = Contributing to Redmine with git and github | |
|
2 | ||
|
3 | (This is a beta document. If you can improve it, fork it and send a patch/pull request.) | |
|
4 | ||
|
5 | The official repository is at http://github.com/edavis10/redmine | |
|
6 | ||
|
7 | Official branches: | |
|
8 | ||
|
9 | * master - is automatically mirrored to svn trunk. DO NOT COMMIT OR MERGE INTO THIS BRANCH | |
|
10 | * [0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0,...]-stable - is automatically mirrored to svn release branches. DO NOT COMMIT OR MERGE INTO THIS BRANCH | |
|
11 | * integration-to-svn-trunk - this branch is a git-only branch that will track master (trunk). Any code in here will be eventually merged into master but it may be rebased as any time (git-svn needs to rebase to commit to svn) | |
|
12 | * integration-to-svn-stable-1.0 - this branch is a git-only branch that will track the 1.0-stable branch in svn. Any code in here will be eventually merged into master and 1.0-stable but it may be rebased as any time (git-svn needs to rebase to commit to svn) | |

14 | I (edavis10) might have some other branches on the repository for work in progress. | |

16 | == Branch naming standards | |
|
17 | ||
|
18 | Redmine has two kinds of development: | |
|
19 | ||
|
20 | * bug fixes | |
|
21 | * new feature development | |
|
22 | ||
|
23 | Both bug fixes and new feature development should be done in a branch named after the issue number on Redmine.org. So if you are fixing Issue #6244 your branch should be named: | |
|
24 | ||
|
25 | * 6244 | |
|
26 | * 6244-sort-people-by-display-name (optional description) | |
|
27 | * issue/6244 (optional "issue" prefix) | |
|
28 | * issue/6244-sort-people-by-display-name (optional prefix and description) | |
|
29 | ||
|
30 | That way when the branch is merged into the Redmine core, the correct issue can be updated. | |
|
31 | ||
|
32 | Longer term feature development might require multiple branches. Just your best judgment and try to keep the issue id in the name. | |
|
33 | ||
|
34 | If you don't have an issue for your patch, create an issue on redmine.org and say it's a placeholder issue for your work. Better yet, add a brief overview of what you are working on to the issue and you might get some help with it. | |
|
35 | ||
|
36 | == Coding Standards | |
|
37 | ||
|
38 | Follow the coding standards on the Redmine wiki: http://www.redmine.org/wiki/redmine/Coding_Standards#Commits. Make sure you commit logs conform to the standards, otherwise someone else will have to rewrite them for you and you might lose attribution during the conversion to svn. | |
