We welcome contributions from the community and first want to thank you for taking the time to contribute!
Please familiarize yourself with the Code of Conduct before contributing.
Before you start working with vmware-customer-connect-cli, please read and sign our Contributor License Agreement CLA. If you wish to contribute code and you have not signed our contributor license agreement (CLA), our bot will prompt you to do so when you open a Pull Request. For any questions about the CLA process, please refer to our FAQ.
We welcome many different types of contributions and not all of them need a Pull request. Contributions may include:
- New features and proposals
- Documentation
- Bug fixes
- Issue Triage
- Answering questions and giving feedback
- Helping to onboard new contributors
- Other related activities
This is a rough outline of what a contributor's workflow looks like:
- Make a fork of the repository within your GitHub account
- Create a topic branch in your fork from where you want to base your work
- Make commits of logical units
- Make sure your commit messages are with the proper format, quality and descriptiveness (see below)
- Push your changes to the topic branch in your fork
- Create a pull request containing that commit
We follow the GitHub workflow and you can find more details on the GitHub flow documentation.
Before submitting your pull request, we advise you to use the following:
- Check if your code changes will pass both code linting checks and unit tests.
- Ensure your commit messages are descriptive. We follow the conventions on How to Write a Git Commit Message. Be sure to include any related GitHub issue references in the commit message. See GFM syntax for referencing issues and commits.
- Check the commits and commits messages and ensure they are free from typos.
For specifics on what to include in your report, please follow the guidelines in the issue and pull request templates when available.
For all issues please raise a Github issue.
