You should run the py.test
unit tests on your changes, if possible,
before issuing the PR. To run the unit tests, in the top pynucastro/
directory, run:
py.test-3 -v .
Once you have run the unit tests and submitted the PR, one of the pynucastro developers will review the PR and if needed, suggest modifications prior to merging the PR.
If there are a number of small commits making up the PR, we may wish to squash commits upon merge to have a clean history. Please ensure that your PR title and first post are descriptive, since these will be used for a squashed commit message.
