How to contribute¶

Create a local git repository¶

Minbif uses git as software configuration management. Clone the reference branch with:

$ git clone git://git.symlink.me/pub/romain/minbif.git

To fetch new head modifications, use:

$ git pull --rebase

Write a patch¶

Find an opened issue on this website, or write you own bugfix or feature.

Then, everytime it is necessary, commit with:

git commit -a

Do not forget to write a commit message.

Send a patch¶

git format-patch -ns origin

Then, send them with this command:

git-send-email --to=romain@peerfuse.org *.patch

You can send yourself these files if you haven't any configured MTA on your system.

Ask for a public repository on git.symlink.me¶

If you think you'll contribute to Minbif for a long, you can ask for a public repository.

You'll also be able to push your commits in, and they'll be merged into the romain's repository easily.

All git branch are listed here: http://git.symlink.me
