New to the Django Community

[Soham Bopardikar]

Hi everyone I am Soham Bopardikar. I am looking forward to contributing to 
the Django community. I have basic Django skills and I can create some 
websites with it. I also know how to use a bit of Git and Github. I just 
wanted to know whether I need to know something more to start contributing 
efficiently to this community.

It's expected. Some tests are only applicable to certain databases. Search 
for all mentions of "skip" at 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests/.
  
You can run the tests with "-v 2" to see the reason why a test was skipped.

Re: New to the Django Community

['Adam Johnson' via Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)]

Welcome!

There are many different ways to contribute to Django - the forum,
blogging, translating, documenting, writing code, and more. Our
Contributing Guide can help you get started with many of these:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/

If you’re looking to work with the code base (for documentation or code),
check out the “Advice for New Contributors” section:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/new-contributors/
. Then see if you can work through the “Writing Your First Patch” tutorial:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/intro/contributing/ .

If you get stuck or have questions, post back here or in the “Mentorship”
section on the forum:
https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/mentorship/10

Hope that helps,

Adam

Re: The blacklist / master issue

[Matthias Kestenholz]

Yes, please.

As a third party app developer I'll have to update a few GitHub 
workflows and tox configurations (since I'm running testsuites against 
the main branch too). It may be useful to announce this change on as 
many channels as possible (mailing lists, the forum, as a news entry on 
the Django website). Just an idea, this shouldn't be a blocker for 
moving forward with this.


Thanks,
Matthias

Hi all,

Reviving an old topic. GitHub has by now tooling in place to
rename branches and keep open PRs in sync. In fact, if I were to
change the `master` branch to `main`, GitHub tells me this:

Renaming this branch:
* Will update 158 pull requests targeting this branch across 112
repositories.
* Will update 1 branch protection rule that explicitly targets
master.
* Will not update your members' local environments.

I'd suggest to go through with this change and make the
necessary changes to the CI / website.

Cheers,

Markus

Thanks for the input, Matthias. That's useful to know. I'll make sure the 
change is announced.

Cheers,
