How to Contribute

When contributing to this repository, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue with the owners of this repository before making a change. Fixing typos or rephrasing for better understanding DO NOT require discussion.

Branching Model

This repository holds two main branches with an infinite lifetime:

  • master is the default branch which always reflects the latest release.
  • develop is the main branch reflecting the latest delivered changes for the next release. When the develop branch reaches a stable point and is ready to be released, then all changes should be merged back into master.

A variety of supporting branches are used to aid parallel development. These branches have a limited life time, since they will be removed eventually.
