Note to Code Shelter maintainers

The multi-geth project is an extension of upstream go-ethereum that add more blockchain network support. Some philosophical notes to maintainers:

  • We accept all patches to add new network supports, as long as it's reasonable. In other words, we don't reject new network supports due to political reasons.
  • We follow upstream closely.

Besides checking out new PR to merge, please also help out following upstream and making new releases. Thank you!

Merge Upstream Changes

Add https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum to one of your remote. Then pull the upstream master branch (note that it must be master branch!), resolve conflicts and create a new PR.

When you review a merge-upstream PR, please make sure it is merged via a merge commit.

Making New Releases

Whenever the upstream makes a new release, multi-geth usually makes a new release as well. Besides, new releases can also be made when a notable new feature is added in multi-geth.

To create a new release, branch off master into a release branch release/vx.x.x. Change VersionMeta to stable in params/version.go. Create a signed commit and push it to this repo. The CI will them automatically build all release binaries. After all binaries are built, create a Github release on that tag.
