Contributing

First off, thank you for considering contributing to the project. It's people like you that helps in keeping this extension useful.

Where do I go from here ?

If you've noticed a bug or have a question, search the issue tracker to see if someone else in the community has already created a ticket. If not, go ahead and make one!

Fork & create a branch

If this is something you think you can fix, then fork this repo and create a branch with a descriptive name.

A good branch name would be (where issue #325 is the ticket you're working on):

git checkout -b 325-add-new-feature

Make a Pull Request

At this point, you should switch back to your master branch and make sure it's up to date with loopback4-microservice-catalog's master branch:

git remote add upstream git@github.com:sourcefuse/loopback4-microservice-catalog.git
git checkout master
git pull upstream master

Then update your feature branch from your local copy of master, and push it!

git checkout 325-add-new-feature
git rebase master
git push --set-upstream origin 325-add-new-feature

Finally, go to GitHub and make a Pull Request.

Keeping your Pull Request updated

If a maintainer asks you to "rebase" your PR, they're saying that a lot of code has changed, and that you need to update your branch so it's easier to merge.

To learn more about rebasing in Git, there are a lot of good resources but here's the suggested workflow:

git checkout 325-add-new-feature
git pull --rebase upstream master
git push --force-with-lease 325-add-new-feature
