Thank you for your interest in contributing to fsnotify! We try to review and merge PRs in a reasonable timeframe, but please be aware that:

  • To avoid "wasted" work, please discus changes on the issue tracker first. You can just send PRs, but they may end up being rejected for one reason or the other.

  • fsnotify is a cross-platform library, and changes must work reasonably well on all supported platforms.

  • Changes will need to be compatible; old code should still compile, and the runtime behaviour can't change in ways that are likely to lead to problems for users.

Testing

Just go test ./... runs all the tests; the CI runs this on all supported platforms. Testing different platforms locally can be done with something like goon or Vagrant, but this isn't super-easy to set up at the moment.

Use the -short flag to make the "stress test" run faster.
