Contributions to our repositories are made through Issues and Pull Requests (PRs). A few general guidelines that cover both:
- Search for existing Issues and PRs before creating your own.
- We work hard to makes sure issues are handled in promptly but, depending on the impact, it could take a while to investigate the root cause. A friendly @ mention in the comment thread to the submitter or a contributor can help draw attention if your issue is blocking.
Bugs are tracked as GitHub issues. When logging an issue, explain the problem and include additional details to help maintainers reproduce the problem:
- Use a clear and descriptive title for the issue to identify the problem.
- Describe the exact steps to reproduce the problem.
- Describe the behavior you observed after following the steps.
- Explain which behavior you expected to see instead and why.
- Include screenshots if possible.
If it is a security issue, please review our documentation on Vulnerability Reporting
