# Contributing to one of our projects
Our projects are open-source, and are deployed as commits are
pushed to the `master` branch on each repository. We've created
a set of guidelines here in order to keep everything clean and
in working order. Please note that contributions may be rejected
on the basis of a contributor failing to follow the guidelines.
## Rules
1. **No force-pushes** or modifying the Git history in any way.
1. If you have direct access to the repository,
**create a branch for your changes** and
create a merge request for that branch.
If not, fork it and work on a separate branch there.
* Some repositories require this and will reject
any direct pushes to `master`. Make this a habit!
1. If someone is working on a merge request,
**do not open your own merge request for the same task**.
Instead, leave some comments on the existing merge request.
Communication is key, and there's no point in two separate
implementations of the same thing.
* One option is to fork the other contributor's repository,
and submit your changes to their branch with your own merge
request. If you do this, we suggest following these guidelines
when interacting with their repository as well.
1. **Adhere to the prevailing code style**, which we enforce using
[flake8](http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/index.html).
* Additionally, run `flake8` against your code before
you push it. Your commit will be rejected by the build server
if it fails to lint.
* Keep the coverage at 100%. Your reason not to do so is not good enough.
* No pushes to `master` without a really really good reason.
If you're unsure, it is not good enough.
* Update the `CHANGELOG.md` file as necessary.
Maintainers will tag releases as appropriate.
1. **Don't fight the framework**. Every framework has its flaws, but
the frameworks we've picked out have been carefully
chosen for their particular merits. If you can avoid it,
please resist reimplementing swathes of framework logic - the
work has already been done for you!
1. **Work as a team** and cooperate where possible. Keep things
friendly, and help each other out - these are shared
projects, and nobody likes to have their feet trodden on.
1. **Internal projects are internal**. As a contributor,
you have access to information that the rest of the server
does not. With this trust comes responsibility - do not
release any information you have learned as a result of
your contributor position. We are very strict about
announcing things at specific times, and many staff members
will not appreciate a disruption of the announcement schedule.
Above all, the needs of our community should come before the wants
of an individual. Work together, build solutions to problems and
try to do so in a way that people can learn from easily.
Abuse of our trust may result in the loss of your
Contributor role, especially in relation to Rule 7.
## Changes to this arrangement
All projects evolve over time, and this contribution
guide is no different. This document may also be subject to pull
requests or changes by contributors, where you
believe you have something valuable to add or change.
