Contributions

Subjects

You are welcome to create pull requests on any of those subjects:

  • 🐛 bug fix
  • 🌐 translation / i18n / l10n

If you want to implement a new feature, please create a corresponding ticket for review.
If you ever want to begin implementation, do so in a fork, and add a link to the corresponding commits in the ticket. As maintainers of the module we favor generic solutions, i.e. the ones that address most use cases instead of just a very specific need.

For all security related subjects, please see our security policy.

🔀 Branch model

All developments are done on the master branch. If needed, a support/* branch might be created from a tag for compatibility reasons.

You should always base your developments on the master branch.

Coding

🌐 Translations

A dedicated page is available in the official wiki.

Where to start ?

  1. Create a fork from our repository (see Working with forks - GitHub Help)
  2. Create a branch in this fork, based on the develop branch
  3. Code !

Do create a dedicated branch for each modification you want to propose : if you don't, it will be very hard for us to merge back your work !

  • Use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
  • Use the imperative mood ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...")
  • Limit the first line to 72 characters or less
  • Please start the commit message with an applicable emoji code (following the Gitmoji guide).
