. If it has been over five business days and you have not received any feedback, feel free to follow up with us.
- Make A Branch
- Please create a separate branch for each issue that you're working on. Do not make changes to the default branch (e.g.
master
,
develop
) of your fork.
- Push Your Code ASAP
- Describe Your Pull Request
- Use the format specified in pull request template for the repository.
Populate the stencil completely
for maximum verbosity.
- Tag the actual issue number by replacing
#[issue_number]
e.g.
#42
.
This closes the issue when your PR is merged.
- Tag the actual issue author by replacing
@[author]
e.g.
@issue_author
.
This brings the reporter of the issue into the conversation.
- Mark the tasks off your checklist by adding an
x
in the
[ ]
e.g.
[x]
.
This checks off the boxes in your to-do list. The more boxes you check, the better.
- Describe your change in detail. Too much detail is better than too little.
- Describe how you tested your change.
- Check the Preview tab to make sure the Markdown is correctly rendered and that all tags and references are linked. If not, go back and edit the Markdown.
