Hacking on Caja | ||
------------------- | ||
|
||
The Caja source tree is available from MATE git (git.gnome.org) and | ||
in releases on the MATE FTP site | ||
(http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/MATE/sources/caja/). | ||
The Caja source tree is available from MATE git | ||
(https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-file-manager) and | ||
in releases on the MATE FTP site (http://pub.mate-desktop.org/). | ||
|
||
If you plan to hack on Caja, please make sure you work from the | ||
Git version. The Git version can be checked from the MATE git server. | ||
See http://live.gnome.org/Git for details on how to get started with | ||
MATE Git. For details on how Caja uses git, see the README.commits | ||
file. | ||
|
||
If you want to contribute in development discussions, please send mail | ||
to the caja mailing list: <caja-list@gnome.org>. Archives and | ||
subscription information are available at | ||
http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/caja-list | ||
|
||
|
||
Submitting Patches | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
If you've been working on a change to Caja and want to propose it | ||
for inclusion, you have to generate a patch and submit it for review | ||
by the maintainers. | ||
|
||
Patches should be made with 'git format-patch -M' | ||
and should conform to Caja coding style as described in | ||
docs/style-guide.html. We are pretty strict about coding style, so | ||
please make sure you follow the style guide to avoid unnecessary | ||
work on both sides when reviewing the patch. | ||
|
||
The best way to submit a patch for review is to post it on the mailing | ||
list. That way everyone sees it and can take part in the following | ||
discussion about it. Sometimes people also attach patches to bugs in | ||
bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org, product 'caja'). If you do | ||
this, please send a mail to the list saying you did so, because it is | ||
very easy for the bugzilla email to get lost in all the bugzilla | ||
reports, and only the people CCd on the bug can partake in the | ||
discussion. When attaching bugs to bugzilla from git the git-bz | ||
command can be helpful, see: | ||
http://blog.fishsoup.net/2008/11/16/git-bz-bugzilla-subcommand-for-git/ | ||
|
||
The Caja maintainers do their best to review patches and help | ||
developers that want to work on something, however we are often | ||
swamped in work and can miss an email or just forget to answer | ||
it. Don't be afraid of reposting your patches after a while, or poking | ||
us about the status of them. | ||
|
||
Also, if you're planning to do large changes, please take them up for | ||
discussion on the list first. If you get feedback early it is much | ||
easier to integrate it into your work. | ||
|
||
If your patch adds non-trivial strings, please ask for a string review | ||
from the i18n team before committing the changes. Strings should avoid | ||
contractions, and stay consistent with other strings already in Caja. | ||
Please reuse strings within Caja where it makes sense to do so. | ||
