Contributing

Once you have made the necessary changes to the codebase, the steps for submitting to the base repository are as follows:

  • Commit your changes to a new branch in your forked repository.
  • Push the branch to your forked repository on GitHub.
  • Open a pull request from your branch to the base repository.

Commit and push changes

In IntelliJ, open the Commit tab. Check the files you want to submit (usually all), then provide a short commit message describing what you changed. Then, click Commit and Push, then Push.

Find more information on committing and pushing on this IntelliJ help page.

Important

You cannot push to the wyskoj/midis2jam2 repository. You must first push to your forked repository, then open a pull request.

Open a pull request

After pushing your changes to your forked repository, open your web browser and navigate to your forked repository on GitHub. Click the Pull requests tab, then click the New pull request button. Complete the form, describing in detail what changes you are requesting to merge.

Find more information on opening a pull request on this GitHub Docs page.
