Thank You
|
||||
---------
|
||||
First off, thanks for contributing to the maintenance of the Python programming
|
||||
language and the CPython interpreter! Even if your contribution is not
|
||||
ultimately accepted, the fact you put time and effort into helping out is
|
||||
greatly appreciated.
|
||||

Contribution Guidelines
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
Please read the `devguide <https://cpython-devguide.readthedocs.io/>`_ for
|
||||
Please read the `devguide <https://devguide.python.org/>`_ for
|
||||
guidance on how to contribute to this project. The documentation covers
|
||||
everything from how to build the code to submitting a pull request. There are
|
||||
also suggestions on how you can most effectively help the project.
|
||||
|
||||
Please be aware that our workflow does deviate slightly from the typical GitHub
|
||||
project. Details on how to properly submit a pull request are covered in
|
||||
`Lifecycle of a Pull Request <https://cpython-devguide.readthedocs.io/pullrequest.html>`_.
|
||||
One key point is to keep comments on GitHub to only those related to the reviewing
|
||||
the code in the pull request. All other discussions -- e.g. about the issue being
|
||||
fixed -- should happen on bugs.python.org.
|
||||
`Lifecycle of a Pull Request <https://devguide.python.org/pullrequest/>`_.
|
||||
We utilize various bots and status checks to help with this, so do follow the
|
||||
comments they leave and their "Details" links, respectively. The key points of
|
||||
our workflow that are not covered by a bot or status check are:
|
||||
|
||||
If you are making a code contribution or large documentation contribution,
|
||||
please feel free to add yourself to the ``Misc/ACKS`` file alphabetically.
|
||||
- All discussions that are not directly related to the code in the pull request
|
||||
should happen on bugs.python.org
|
||||
- Upon your first non-trivial pull request (which includes documentation changes),
|
||||
feel free to add yourself to ``Misc/ACKS``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Setting Expectations
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
Due to the fact that this project is entirely volunteer-run (i.e. no one is paid
|
||||
to work on Python full-time), we unfortunately can make no guarantees as to if
|
||||
or when a core developer will get around to reviewing your pull request.
|
||||
If no core developer has done a review or responded to changes made because of a
|
||||
"changes requested" review, please feel free to email python-dev to ask if
|
||||
someone could take a look at your pull request.
