| # How to become a contributor and submit your own code |
| |
| ## Contributor License Agreements |
| |
| We'd love to accept your sample apps and patches! Before we can take them, we |
| have to jump a couple of legal hurdles. |
| |
| Please fill out either the individual or corporate Contributor License Agreement |
| (CLA). |
| |
| * If you are an individual writing original source code and you're sure you |
| own the intellectual property, then you'll need to sign an [individual CLA] |
| (http://code.google.com/legal/individual-cla-v1.0.html). |
| * If you work for a company that wants to allow you to contribute your work, |
| then you'll need to sign a [corporate CLA] |
| (http://code.google.com/legal/corporate-cla-v1.0.html). |
| |
| Follow either of the two links above to access the appropriate CLA and |
| instructions for how to sign and return it. Once we receive it, we'll be able to |
| accept your pull requests. |
| |
| ## Contributing a Patch |
| |
| 1. Sign a Contributor License Agreement, if you have not yet done so (see |
| details above). |
| 1. Create your change to the repo in question. |
| * Fork the desired repo, develop and test your code changes. |
| * Ensure that your code is clear and comprehensible. |
| * Ensure that your code has an appropriate set of unit tests which all pass. |
| 1. Submit a pull request. |
| 1. The repo owner will review your request. If it is approved, the change will |
| be merged. If it needs additional work, the repo owner will respond with |
| useful comments. |
