Add CONTRIBUTING Guide #177
Conversation
Signed-off-by: Elsie Hupp <github@elsiehupp.com>
I'm not sure what's meant on line 55 by "You don't have to do so up front, but we ask that you do so when you...". Otherwise it looks fine. |
It means "You don't have to do so up front, but we ask that you [follow these best practices for writing a commit message] when you [open a pull request]," but, yeah, the wording is a bit awkward... (By the way, you should be able to make commits on this Pull Request yourself, if you'd like to tweak the wording. I did this myself on one of your recent Pull Requests.) |
clarifying the wording about commits
The main substance lgtm. Haven't carefully examined the wording but can do so later. |

Looks good! (EDIT: Rob's changes, that is.)
Fixes #82. This branch is based on #177, so it cannot be merged before the CONTRIBUTING branch is merged. Note that I believe it is less than ideal for me, Elsie Hupp, to have sole responsibility for CoC reports, but I also think it's better to have an initial framework in place rather than none at all. --------- Signed-off-by: Elsie Hupp <github@elsiehupp.com> Co-authored-by: Rob Kam <robkam@gmx.com>
Considering the frustrations with our development process, I figured it was well past time to put together a written set of best practices.
This Pull Request partially addresses @NyaMisty's Issue #82 (but not fully), so @mediawiki-client-tools @yzqzss everyone please do comment on this and make or suggest any changes.
(I am marking as a draft in order to give everyone time to respond before this gets merged.)
Note that as @robkam mentioned, the "Code of Conduct" is kind of a separate Issue from the "Contributing" guide; I can open a Pull Request for that next.
