Submission Guidelines

Submitting a Pull Request (PR)

Before you submit your PR, consider the following guidelines:

  • Ensure your changes is made in a new git branch:

    git checkout -b feature/my_feature_branch master
  • Create your feature or patch, including appropriate test cases.

  • Run the full test suite and ensure that all tests pass.

  • Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message.

    git commit -a

    Note: the optional commit -a command line option will automatically "add" and "rm" edited files.

  • Push your branch to GitHub:

    git push origin feature/my_feature_branch
  • In GitHub web UI, create PR to scala-http4s-realworld-example-app:master.

  • Ask a core team member to review your changes, if changes are suggested then:

    • Make the required updates.
    • Re-run the test suites to ensure tests are still passing.
    • Commit your changes to your branch (e.g. feature/my_feature_branch).
    • Pull latest master to check if there has been any further updates, merge (and/or) rebase if necessary (see note below).
    • Push the changes to your GitHub repository (this will update your PR).

If the PR gets too outdated, you will need to rebase and force push to update the PR:

git rebase master -i
git push origin feature/my_feature_branch -f

WARNING. Squashing or reverting commits and forced push thereafter may remove GitHub comments on code that were previously made by you and others in your commits.

After Your PR is Merged

After your PR is merged, delete your branch from GitHub (and locally), and pull the changes from the main (upstream) repository:

  • Delete the remote branch on GitHub either through the GitHub web UI or your local shell as follows:

    git push origin --delete feature/my_feature_branch
  • Check out the master branch:

    git checkout master -f
  • Delete the local branch:

    git branch -D feature/my_feature_branch
  • Update your master with the latest upstream version:

    git pull --ff --prune upstream master
