If you have a patch for Salt, please format it via :command:`git format-patch` and
|
|
|
|
|
send it to the Salt users mailing list. This allows the patch to give you the
|
|
|
|
|
contributor the credit for your patch, and gives the Salt community an archive
|
|
|
|
|
of the patch and a place for discussion.

|
|
|
|
fork, commit your changes to the fork, and then open up a pull request.

The goal here it to make contributions clear, make sure there is a trail for
|
|
|
|
|
where the code has come from, but most importantly, to give credit where credit
|
|
|
|
|
is due!
