Submitting a pull request

Before you submit your pull request, please:
  • If you are considering submitting a pull-request that is more than a simple fix, open a discussion on GitHub first with your proposal.
  • Search GitHub for an open or closed Pull Request that relates to your submission.
Make your changes in a new git branch: 
git checkout -b my-fix-branch main
  • Follow our Coding Style.
  • Create your patch, including appropriate test cases and documentation.
  • Run the test suite.
  • Commit your changes using a descriptive commit message that follows our commit message conventions.
git commit -a
Note: the optional commit -a command line option will automatically “add” and “rm” edited files.
  • Build your changes locally to ensure all the tests pass.
  • Push your branch to GitHub: 
git push origin my-fix-branch
In GitHub, send a pull request to gitpod-io:main. If we suggest changes, then:
  • Make the required updates.
  • Re-run the test suite to ensure tests are still passing.
  • Commit your changes to your branch (e.g. my-fix-branch).
  • Push the changes to your GitHub repository (this will update your Pull Request).
That’s it! Thank you for your contribution!
