How to contribute

All contributions are welcome. We like to see contributions like for example:

• Tutorials on installing Tracks in various environments.
  They can be added to the wiki on github
• Tutorials on using Tracks (user manual).
  They can be added to the wiki on github
• Reporting issues you have with Tracks (bugs, enhancements).
• Bugfixes, enhancements: pull requests.
  We review pull requests on github. For enhancements it would be great to first discuss them on the mailing list so you can figure out if it could be merged or not. You may use the wiki too to describe your change if it is too big for an email.

To clone Tracks:

mkdir ~/dev/tracks
cd ~/dev/tracks
git clone git://github.com/TracksApp/tracks.git

Or you can sign up for a free account on github and fork Tracks using the convenient button.

For help with running the tests, see https://github.com/TracksApp/tracks/wiki/Testing

If (when!) you produce a cool new feature or fix a bug, create a patch. If you develop in a branch called 'experiment':

git diff master..experiment > my_feature.patch 

Then attach my_feature.patch to a ticket.

If you are on github, you can use the button to issue a pull request for your changes to be pulled into the main repository. Please try to write a useful and well-formatted commit message -- see some formatting guidelines and tips for integrating with the issue tracker.

Thanks!
