Pull Requests

The preferred way to contribute is to fork the main repository on GitHub.

  1. Fork the main repository. Click on the 'Fork' button near the top of the page. This creates a copy of the code under your account on the GitHub server.

  2. Clone this copy to your local disk:

     $ git clone [email protected]:YourLogin/saws.git
     $ cd saws
    
  3. Create a branch to hold your changes and start making changes. Don't work in the master branch!

     $ git checkout -b my-feature
    
  4. Work on this copy on your computer using Git to do the version control. When you're done editing, run the following to record your changes in Git:

     $ git add modified_files
     $ git commit
    
  5. Push your changes to GitHub with:

     $ git push -u origin my-feature
    
  6. Finally, go to the web page of your fork of the SAWS repo and click 'Pull Request' to send your changes for review.
