Contributing to this project

♥ Browser Logos and want to get involved? Thanks! There are plenty of ways you can help!

First of all, please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved.

Following these guidelines helps to communicate that you respect the time of the developers managing and developing this open source project. In return, they should reciprocate that respect in addressing your issue or assessing patches and features.

Using the issue tracker

The issue tracker is the preferred channel for bug reports, features requests and submitting pull requests, but please respect the following restriction:

  • Do not derail or troll issues. Keep the discussion on topic and respect the opinions of others.

Bug reports

A bug is a demonstrable problem with the content in the repository. Good bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you!

Guidelines for bug reports:

  1. Use the GitHub issue search — check if the issue has already been reported.

  2. Check if the issue has been fixed — verify if the issue is still present using the latest content from the master branch.

A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more information. Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. What browser logo(s) on what OS(es) experience the problem? What exactly is wrong with the logo(s)? What should be changed? All these details will help people to fix any potential bugs.

Example:

Short and descriptive bug report title

A summary of the issue and the browser logo(s) for which it occurs. If suitable, include images that:

  • show the difference between the existing logo(s) and what is expected
  • highlight the affected part(s) of the logo(s)

Any other information you want to share that is relevant to the issue being reported, as well as potential solutions (and your opinions on their merits).

Feature requests

Feature requests are welcome, but please take a moment to find out whether your idea fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to you to make a strong case and convince the project's developers of the merits of the feature by providing as much detail and context as possible.

Pull requests

Good pull requests - new logos, better version of the existing logos, improvements - are a fantastic help, but they should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated commits.

Ask before embarking on any significant pull request (e.g. adding new image file formats), otherwise you risk spending a lot of time working on something that the project's developers might not want to merge into the project. Also, please adhere to the conventions used throughout the project and any other requirements.

Follow this process if you'd like your work considered for inclusion in the project:

  1. Fork the project, clone your fork, and configure the remotes:

    # Clone your fork of the repo into the current directory
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/browser-logos

# Navigate to the newly cloned directory
cd browser-logos

# Assign the original repo to a remote called "upstream"
git remote add upstream https://github.com/alrra/browser-logos

  2. If you cloned a while ago, get the latest changes from upstream:

    git checkout <dev-branch>
git pull upstream <dev-branch>

  3. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to contain your addition, change, or fix:

    git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>

  4. Commit your changes in logical chunks. Please adhere to these git commit message guidelines or your code is unlikely be merged into the main project. Use Git's interactive rebase feature to tidy up your commits before making them public.

  5. Locally merge (or rebase) the upstream development branch into your topic branch:

    git pull [--rebase] upstream <dev-branch>

  6. Push your topic branch up to your fork:

    git push origin <topic-branch-name>

  7. Open a Pull Request with a clear title and description.

IMPORTANT: By submitting a patch, you agree with what is specified under the legal section.
