Contributing Guide

Hi stranger, thanks for your love.

If you're looking to improve g, be sure to first:

• Search through Pull-Requests and Issues; someone might have had the same problem already.
• Read the LICENSE.
• Read the Code of Conduct.
• Check the next branch and what changes are pending for release, if any.

IMPORTANT: If you want to add a feature, please open an issue to discuss it first; g aims to be simple.

Once you're ready to start coding:

• Fork the repo.
• Clone your fork.
• Checkout the next branch.
• Apply your changes.
• Document your changes (README, CHANGELOG, --help, etc) where necessary.
• Run make lint to check the code with shellcheck and run make format afterwards to style it with shfmt.

Once you are done with your changes and cleared by make lint and make format:

• Commit with a meaningful message. See: How to Write a Git Commit Message.
• If your contribution is related to an existing issue, remember to reference the issue number.
• Push.
• Open a pull request against the next branch.
• Ask for review.
• Be patient.

Love. ♥
