Patching Eggdrop

Eggdrop is an open source project that depends on contributions of its
users- like you! If you come across a feature you'd like to see
implemented, find a bug, or think the documentation could be made more
clear, you can open an issue on GitHub to discuss your ideas, and then
submit a Pull Request to implement it!

SUBMITTING A PATCH VIA GITHUB

To create a patch via github:

  1.  Fork the eggdrop git repo by logging in to your GitHub account and
      clicking the fork button at the top of the screen. Follow the
      directions it provides to configure your local repo.

  2.  Enter the local directory and create a new branch for your patch:

          git checkout -b <DescriptiveBranchName>

  3.  Make your changes

  4.  Once you confirm your patch works, push the changes back to your
      GitHub repo - this is usually done by something similar to:

          git push origin <DescriptiveBranchName>

  5.  Create a pull request by clicking on the "Pull Request" button on
      your GitHub page. Select the appropriate branches (usually
      eggheads/eggdrop/develop and yourUserName/eggdrop/YourBranchName)

  6.  Fill in the Pull Request template and submit

  7.  Pour yourself a cold one and bask in the warm feeling of
      contributing to the open source community! Karma++!
