2. Install your local copy:
* $ pip install -e .[dev]
3. Create a branch for local development:
* $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
4. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the
tests:
* $ python -m unittest
5. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
* $ git add .
* $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
* $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
6. Submit a merge request through the Gitlab website.
Pull Request Guidelines
-----------------------
Before you submit a merge request, check that it meets these guidelines:
1. The merge request should include tests.
2. If the merge request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
feature to the list in README.rst.
3. The pull request should work for Python 3.[6,7,8]
Tips
----
To run a subset of tests, for the lemi2seed module for example, run:
* $ python -m unittest tests/test_lemi2seed.py
Deploying
---------
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy.
Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in HISTORY.rst).
Then run:
* $ git push
* $ git push --tags
