Using GIT

Setup your own public GitHub repository

Your first step is to establish a public repository from which you can pull your work into the master repository.

  1. Setup a GitHub account, if you haven't yet

  2. Fork the event-store-symfony-bundle repository

  3. Clone your fork locally and enter it (use your own GitHub username in the statement below)

    $ git clone git@github.com:[your username]/event-store-symfony-bundle.git
$ cd event-store-symfony-bundle

  4. Add a remote to the canonical event-store-symfony-bundle repository, so you can keep your fork up-to-date:

    $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/prooph/event-store-symfony-bundle.git
$ git fetch upstream

Keeping Up-to-Date

Periodically, you should update your fork to match the canonical event-store-symfony-bundle repository. we have added a remote to the event-store-symfony-bundle repository, which allows you to do the following:

$ git checkout master
$ git pull upstream master
- OPTIONALLY, to keep your remote up-to-date -
$ git push origin

If you're tracking other branches -- for example, the develop branch, where new feature development occurs -- you'll want to do the same operations for that branch; simply substitute "develop" for "master".

Working on event-store-symfony-bundle

When working on event-store-symfony-bundle, we recommend you do each new feature or bugfix in a new branch. This simplifies the task of code review as well as of merging your changes into the canonical repository.

A typical work flow will then consist of the following:

  1. Create a new local branch based off your master branch.
  2. Switch to your new local branch. (This step can be combined with the previous step with the use of git checkout -b.)
  3. Do some work, commit, repeat as necessary.
  4. Push the local branch to your remote repository.
  5. Send a pull request.

The mechanics of this process are actually quite trivial. Below, we will create a branch for fixing an issue in the tracker.

$ git checkout -b 3452
Switched to a new branch '3452'

... do some work ...

$ git commit

... write your log message ...

$ git push origin HEAD:3452

   g5342..9k3532  HEAD -> master

You can do the pull request from GitHub. Navigate to your repository, select the branch you just created, and then select the "Pull Request" button in the upper right. Select the user prooph as the recipient.

Branch to issue the pull request

Which branch should you issue a pull request against?

  • For fixes against the stable release, issue the pull request against the master branch.
  • For new features, or fixes that introduce new elements to the public API (such as new public methods or properties), issue the pull request against the develop branch.

Branch Cleanup

As you might imagine, if you are a frequent contributor, you'll start to get a ton of branches both locally and on your remote.

Once you know that your changes have been accepted to the master repository, we suggest doing some cleanup of these branches.

  • Local branch cleanup

    $ git branch -d <branchname>

  • Remote branch removal

    $ git push origin :<branchname>
