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:

• 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.

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:

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!
