Rights of contributors
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
If a contributor is quite active within MapComplete, this contributor might be granted access to the main repository.
|
|
|
|
If you have access to the repository, you can make a fork of an already existing branch and push this new branch to
|
|
github. This means that this branch will be _automatically built_ and be **deployed**
|
|
to `https://pietervdvn.github.io/mc/<branchname>`. You can see the deploy process
|
|
on [Github Actions](https://github.com/pietervdvn/MapComplete/actions). Don't worry about pushing too much. These
|
|
deploys are free and totally automatic. They might fail if something is wrong, but this will hinder no-one.
|
|
|
|
Additionaly, some other maintainer might step in and merge the latest develop with your branch, making later pull
|
|
requests easier.
|
|
|
|
Don't worry about bugs
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
As a non-admin contributor, you can _not_ make changes to the `master` nor to the `develop` branch. This is because, as
|
|
soon as master is changed, this is built and deployed on `mapcomplete.osm.be`, which a lot of people use. An error there
|
|
will cause a lot of grieve.
|
|
|
|
A push on `develop` is automatically deployed to [pietervdvn.github.io/mc/develop] and is used by quite some people to.
|
|
People using this version should know that this is a testing ground for new features and might contain a bug every now
|
|
and then.
|
|
|
|
In other words, to get your theme deployed on the main instances, you'll still have to create a pull request. The
|
|
maintainers will then doublecheck and pull it in.
|
|
|
|
If you have a local repository
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you have made a fork earlier and have received contributor rights, you need to tell your local git repository that
|
|
pushing to the main repository is possible.
|
|
|
|
To do this:
|
|
|
|
1. type `git remote add upstream git@github.com:pietervdvn/MapComplete`
|
|
2. Run `git push upstream` to push your latest changes to the main repo (and not your fork). Running `git push` will
|
|
push to your fork.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if you don't have any unmerged changes, you can remove your local copy and clone `pietervdvn/MapComplete`
|
|
again to start fresh. |
