Submissions should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated commits. For pull requests, we employ the following workflow:
- Fork the repository to your own GitHub account
- Create a branch locally with a descriptive name
- Commit changes to the branch
- Write your code according to our development guidelines
- Push changes to your fork
- Clean up your commit history
- Open a PR in our repository and summarize the changes in the description
You should discuss larger changes and feature requests with the maintainers. Please open an issue describing your plans.
Our changelog is generated from PR titles, so please stick to the naming convention.
The PR title should be structured in one of the following ways:
<module>: <title>
Where the <module>
is
- the top level directory of the microservice or component, e.g.,
joinservice
,disk-mapper
,upgrade-agent
but alsodocs
andrfc
- in internal, the second level directory
deps
for dependency upgradesci
for things that are CI related
and <title>
is all lower case (except proper names, including acronyms).
Ticket numbers shouldn’t be part of the title.
In case the scope of your PR is too wide, use the alternative format.
<Title>
and <Title>
starts with a capital letter.
The labels are used for changelog generation (targeted at constellation users), so select the label with this purpose in mind. To exclude the PR from changelog only use these labels:
no changelog
/dependencies
The changelog generation is described here. This is our configuration release.yml.
