Style
|
||
|
===
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you intend to patch and contribute to awesome, please respect the
|
||
|
following guidelines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Imitate the existing code style. For concrete rules:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Use 4 spaces indentation, do not use tabulator characters;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Place braces alone on new lines, and do not place braces for single
|
||
|
line statement where it is not needed, i.e no:
|
||
|
|
||
|
if(bla) {
|
||
|
x = 1;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Do not put a space after if, for, while or function call statements;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The preferred line length is 80 characters;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Use `/* */` for comments;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Use the API: there's a list of `a_*()` function you should use instead
|
||
|
of the standard libc ones. There is also common API for linked list,
|
||
|
tabulars, etc;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Be *clear* in what you do;
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Prefix your function name with the module they are enhancing,
|
||
|
i.e. if you add a function to manipulate a tag prefix it with `tag_`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Write documentation for any new functions, options, whatever.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A vim modeline is set in each file to respect this.
|
||
|
|
||

Patches
|
||
|
===
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you plan to submit patches, you should follow the following guidelines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Commits
|
||
|
---
|
||
|
|
||
|
- make commits of logical units;
|
||
|
- do not modify piece of code not related to your commit;
|
||
|
- do not try to fix style of code you are not writing,
|
||
|
it's just adding noise for no gain;
|
||
|
- check for unnecessary whitespace with `git diff --check` before commiting;
|
||
|
- do not check in commented out code or unneeded files;
|
||
|
- provide a meaningful commit message;
|
||
|
- the first line of the commit message should be a short;
|
||
|
description and should skip the full stop;
|
||
|
- if you want your work included, add a
|
||
|
`Signed-off-by: Your Name <you@example.com>` line to the
|
||
|
commit message (or just use the option `-s` when commiting);
|
||
|
- make sure that you have tests for the bug you are fixing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Patches
|
||
|
---
|
||
|
|
||
|
- use `git format-patch -M` to create the patch;
|
||
|
- do *not* PGP sign your patch;
|
||
|
- be *careful* doing cut & paste into your mailer, not to corrupt whitespaces;
|
||
|
- if you change, add or remove the user API, the associated documentation
|
||
|
should be updated as well;
|
||
|
- send the patch to the list (`awesome-devel@naquadah.org`) if (and only if)
|
||
|
the patch is ready for inclusion. If you use git-send-email(1), please
|
||
|
*test* it first by sending email to yourself.
