Yes, it's always more powerful (and useful) to tell people what TO do, instead
of what NOT to do.
I contribute very occasionally, and by trial and error, I *think* I have found
the procedure. (And if it's not right, or not optimal, I would be delighted to
learn how to do it better...)
- In Github, fork the official repo into my personal Github account
- Clone my personal copy of the repo to my laptop
- Create a branch for my changes on my laptop
- Monkey around, improve the world, then...
- Squash my commits so that there's only one change (optional, but it tends to
improve the commit messages)
- Push my commits back to my personal repo
- From my personal Github account, create a PR for my branch back to the
official OpenWrt repo
Do I have the gist of it? Many thanks.
Rich
Yeah, that's roughly my SOP.
-fork repo
-clone
-edit
-commit
-push (--force) to my clone
-PR
with optional:
-add remote: original repo
-pull
-rebase
-commit --amend
-push --force
