## Submitting a patch

## Submitting a patch ##

1. It's generally best to start by opening a new issue describing the bug or
feature you're intending to fix. Even if you think it's relatively minor,
it's helpful to know what people are working on. Mention in the initial
issue that you are planning to work on that bug or feature so that it can
be assigned to you.

2. Follow the normal process of [forking][] the project, and setup a new
branch to work in. It's important that each group of changes be done in
separate branches in order to ensure that a pull request only includes the
commits related to that bug or feature.

3. Do your best to have [well-formed commit messages][] for each change.
This provides consistency throughout the project, and ensures that commit
messages are able to be formatted properly by various git tools.

4. If not already done, setup a user in the [Phabricator instance][] for the
project, by visiting the instance and waiting for approval.

5. From your branch, create a patch for review using [arc][]:

$ arc diff master

Pick reviewers from the list of users in the [Phabricator instance][].
