Contributing Guidelines

Contributions are welcome via GitHub Pull Requests. This document outlines the process to help get your contribution accepted.

Any type of contribution is welcome; from new features, bug fixes,, documentation improvements, etc

How to Contribute

  1. Fork this repository, develop, and test your changes.
  2. Submit a pull request.

Sign Your Work

The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for a commit. All commits needs to be signed. Your signature certifies that you wrote the patch or otherwise have the right to contribute the material. The rules are pretty simple, you only need to certify the guidelines from developercertificate.org.

Then you just add a line to every git commit message:

Signed-off-by: Joe Smith <joe.smith@example.com>

Use your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)

If you set your user.name and user.email git configs, you can sign your commit automatically with git commit -s.

Note: If your git config information is set properly then viewing the git log information for your commit will look something like this:

Author: Joe Smith <joe.smith@example.com>
Date:   Thu Feb 2 11:41:15 2018 -0800

    Update README

    Signed-off-by: Joe Smith <joe.smith@example.com>

Notice the Author and Signed-off-by lines match. If they don't your PR will be rejected by the automated DCO check.

PR Approval and Release Process

  1. Changes are manually reviewed by Bitnami team members.
  2. When the PR passes all tests, the PR is merged by the reviewer(s) in the GitHub master branch.
