============ Contributing ============ Contributions are most welcome! You must first create a Launchpad account and `follow the instructions here `_ to get started as a new OpenStack contributor. Once you've signed the contributor license agreement and read through the above documentation, add your public SSH key under the 'SSH Public Keys' section of review.openstack.org_. .. _review.openstack.org: https://review.openstack.org/#/settings/ You can view your public key using: :: $ cat ~/.ssh/id_*.pub Setup ````` Set your username and email for review.openstack.org: :: $ git config --global user.email "example@example.com" $ git config --global user.name "example" $ git config --global --add gitreview.username "example" Next, Clone the github repository: :: $ git clone https://github.com/openstack/browbeat.git You need to have git-review in order to be able to submit patches using the gerrit code review system. You can install it using: :: $ sudo yum install git-review To set up your cloned repository to work with OpenStack Gerrit :: $ git review -s Making changes `````````````` It's useful to create a branch to do your work, name it something related to the change you'd like to introduce. :: $ cd browbeat $ git branch my_special_enhancement $ git checkout !$ Now you can make your changes and then commit. :: $ git add /path/to/files/changed $ git commit Use a descriptive commit title followed by an empty space. You should type a small justification of what you are changing and why. Local testing ````````````` Before submitting code to Gerrit you *should* do at least some minimal local testing, like running ``tox -e linters``. This could be automated if you activate `pre-commit `__ hooks:: pip install --user pre-commit # to enable automatic run on commit: pre-commit install --install-hooks # to uninstall hooks pre-commit uninstall Please note that the pre-commit feature is available only on repositories that do have `.pre-commit-config.yaml `__ file. Running ``tox -e linters`` is recommended as it may include additional linting commands than just pre-commit. So, if you run tox you don't need to run pre-commit manually. Implementation of pre-commit is very fast and saves a lot of disk space because internally it does cache any linter-version and reuses it between repositories, as opposed to tox which uses environments unique to each repository (usually more than one). Also by design pre-commit always pins linters, making less like to break code because linter released new version. Another reason why pre-commit is very fast is because it runs only on modified files. You can force it to run on the entire repository via `pre-commit run -a` command. Upgrading linters is done via ``pre-commit autoupdate`` but this should be done only as a separate change request. Submit Changes `````````````` Now you're ready to submit your changes for review: :: $ git review If you want to make another patchset from the same commit you can use the amend feature after further modification and saving. :: $ git add /path/to/files/changed $ git commit --amend $ git review Changes to a review ``````````````````` If you want to submit a new patchset from a different location (perhaps on a different machine or computer for example) you can clone the Browbeat repo again (if it doesn't already exist) and then use git review against your unique Change-ID: :: $ git review -d Change-Id Change-Id is the change id number as seen in Gerrit and will be generated after your first successful submission. The above command downloads your patch onto a separate branch. You might need to rebase your local branch with remote master before running it to avoid merge conflicts when you resubmit the edited patch. To avoid this go back to a "safe" commit using: :: $ git reset --hard commit-number Then, :: $ git fetch origin :: $ git rebase origin/master Make the changes on the branch that was setup by using the git review -d (the name of the branch is along the lines of review/username/branch_name/patchsetnumber). Add the files to git and commit your changes using, :: $ git commit --amend You can edit your commit message as well in the prompt shown upon executing above command. Finally, push the patch for review using, :: $ git review Adding functionality -------------------- If you are adding new functionality to Browbeat please add testing for that functionality in. :: $ ci-scripts/install-and-check.sh See the README.rst in the ci-scripts folder for more details on the structure of the script and how to add additional tests.
