# Contributing to HedgeDoc
|
|
|
|
Thanks for your help in improving the HedgeDoc project!
|
|
|
|
Please note we have a [code of conduct][code-of-conduct], please follow it in all your interactions with the project.
|
|
|
|
## Ways of contributing
|
|
|
|
### Do you have questions about the project?
|
|
|
|
* Feel free to post your question on our [community forum](community-forum) or join
|
|
our [matrix community chat][matrix-support].
|
|
|
|
### Did you find a bug?
|
|
|
|
* **Ensure the bug wasn't already reported** by searching on GitHub under [Issues](issues).
|
|
|
|
* If you're unable to find an open issue addressing the problem, [open a new one](new_issue). Be sure to use one of the
|
|
templates we provide if your request applies to them.
|
|
|
|
### Did you write a patch that fixes a bug?
|
|
|
|
* Open a new GitHub pull request with the patch. See the section [submitting a pull request](#submitting-a-pull-request)
|
|
for details on this.
|
|
|
|
* Ensure the PR description is precise about the problem and your solution. Just fill out our template. That should
|
|
cover the most important information.
|
|
|
|
* Please note that we only accept PRs for the 1.x releases if they fix critical issues. If you are unsure if your fix is
|
|
critical, it's best to ask us before you start coding.
|
|
|
|
### Do you intend to add a new feature or change an existing one?
|
|
|
|
* Suggest your idea via a new GitHub issue. After a confirmation about your idea, you can start writing code. Our
|
|
maintainers and other project developers can provide useful details about the architecture and show you relevant
|
|
issues and discussions.
|
|
|
|
### Do you want to work on translations?
|
|
|
|
* If you want to improve a translation or add a new translation altogether, we handle those via [POEditor](poeditor).
|
|
|
|
HedgeDoc is a volunteer effort. We encourage you to pitch in and help us to make this project even better.

## Certificate of Origin
|
|
|
|
By contributing to this project you agree to
|
|
the [Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)](docs/legal/developer-certificate-of-origin.txt). This document was created
|
|
by the Linux Kernel community and is a simple statement that you, as a contributor, have the legal right to make the
|
|
contribution. The DCO is a legally binding statement,
|
|
please [read it carefully](docs/legal/developer-certificate-of-origin.txt).
|
|
|
|
If you can certify it, then just add a line to every git commit message:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions).
|
|
|
|
If you set your `user.name` and `user.email` git configs, you can sign your commit automatically with `git commit -s`.
|
|
You can also use git [aliases](https://git-scm.com/book/tr/v2/Git-Basics-Git-Aliases)
|
|
like `git config --global alias.ci 'commit -s'`. Now you can commit with `git ci` and the commit will be signed.
|
|
|
|
