Committer's Guide

Patrick Cozzi edited this page Jun 17, 2013 · 3 revisions

These are the social norms when working in the main repo.

  • Make changes on a separate branch, and open a pull request to merge into master.
  • Review any pull request that interests you. Merge pull requests that you and other reviewers are confident in. See the Code Review Tips.
  • Before merging a pull request, check CONTRIBUTORS.md to verify that the contributor has a CLA. If they do not have a CLA, email cesium-committers@googlegroups.com and we'll ask for one.
  • We release monthly and encourage everyone to volunteer once in awhile. See the Release Guide.
  • If a contributor has significant and sustained contributions and should have commit access, propose it on cesium-committers@googlegroups.com. Following the Apache Way, they will be given commit access with three yes votes and no no's over a week. To keep with the community spirit of the project, this is independent of affiliation; no one is entitled to commit access solely based on their affiliation.
