Patches
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
KWSys is kept in its own Git repository and shared by several projects
|
|
via copies in their source trees. Changes to KWSys should not be made
|
|
directly in a host project, except perhaps in maintenance branches.
|
|
|
|
KWSys uses `Kitware's GitLab Instance`_ to manage development and code review.
|
|
To contribute patches:
|
|
|
|
#. Fork the upstream `KWSys Repository`_ into a personal account.
|
|
#. Base all new work on the upstream ``master`` branch.
|
|
#. Run ``./SetupForDevelopment.sh`` in new local work trees.
|
|
#. Create commits making incremental, distinct, logically complete changes.
|
|
#. Push a topic branch to a personal repository fork on GitLab.
|
|
#. Create a GitLab Merge Request targeting the upstream ``master`` branch.
|
|
|
|
Once changes are reviewed, tested, and integrated to KWSys upstream then
|
|
copies of KWSys within dependent projects can be updated to get the changes.

Code Style
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
We use `clang-format`_ version **15** to define our style for C++ code in
|
|
the KWSys source tree. See the `.clang-format`_ configuration file for
|
|
our style settings. Use the `clang-format.bash`_ script to format source
|
|
code. It automatically runs ``clang-format`` on the set of source files
|
|
for which we enforce style. The script also has options to format only
|
|
a subset of files, such as those that are locally modified.
