Contribution guide

Please follow these steps to create your Pull Request to this repository.

Note:

This section takes creating a PR to the master branch as an example. The steps of creating PRs for other branches are similar.

Step 1: Fork the repository

  1. Visit the project (https://github.com/oceanbase/oceanbase)
  2. Click the Fork button to establish an online fork.

Step 2: Clone your fork to local

# Define your working directory
working_dir=$HOME/Workspace

# Configure GitHub
user={your Github profile name}

# Create your clone
mkdir -p $working_dir
cd $working_dir
git clone [email protected]:<your group>/oceanbase.git

# Add upstream
git remote add upstream [email protected]:<your group>/oceanbase.git

# Set no push for the upstream master
git remote set-url --push upstream no_push

# Confirm your remote setting
git remote -v

Step 3: Create a new branch

  1. Get your local master up-to-date with the upstream/master.

    cd $working_dir/docs
    git fetch upstream
    git checkout master
    git rebase upstream/master
  2. Create a new branch based on the master branch.

    git checkout -b new-branch-name

Step 4: Develop

Edit some file(s) on the new-branch-name branch and save your changes.

Step 5: Commit your changes

git status # Checks the local status
git add <file> ... # Adds the file(s) you want to commit. If you want to commit all changes, you can directly use `git add.`
git commit -m "commit-message: update the xx"

Step 6: Keep your branch in sync with upstream/master

# While on your new branch
git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/master

Step 7: Push your changes to the remote

git push -u origin new-branch-name # "-u" is used to track the remote branch from the origin

Step 8: Create a pull request

  1. Visit your fork at https://github.com/$user/docs (replace $user with your GitHub account).
  2. Click the Compare & pull request button next to your new-branch-name branch to create your PR.
