Contributing

Thanks for being willing to contribute!

Working on your first Pull Request? You can learn how from this free series How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub

Project setup

  1. Fork and clone the repo
  2. $ yarn to install dependencies
  3. $ yarn test to validate you've got it working
  4. Create a branch for your PR

Tip: Keep your master branch pointing at the original repository and make pull requests from branches on your fork. To do this, run:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/blackxored/commitlint-config-conventional-system.git
git fetch upstream
git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/master master

This will add the original repository as a "remote" called "upstream," Then fetch the git information from that remote, then set your local master branch to use the upstream master branch whenever you run git pull. Then you can make all of your pull request branches based on this master branch. Whenever you want to update your version of master, do a regular git pull.

Add yourself as a contributor

This project follows the all contributors specification. To add yourself to the table of contributors on the README.md, please use the automated script as part of your PR:

yarn run contributors:add

Follow the prompt and commit .all-contributorsrc and README.md in the PR. If you've already added yourself to the list and are making a new type of contribution, you can run it again and select the added contribution type.

Committing and Pushing changes

This project uses semantic-release to do automatic releases and generate a changelog based on the commit history. So we follow a convention for commit messages. You don't have to follow this convention if you don't like to, although we've provided hooks to make it easier for you to adhere to them if you so choose. Just know that when we merge your commit, we'll probably use "Squash and Merge" so we can change the commit message :)

Please make sure to run the tests before you commit your changes. You can run npm test -- -u which will update any snapshots that need updating. Make sure to include those changes (if they exist) in your commit.
