*********************

The following summarizes the process for contributing changes.

Community
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
CMake is maintained and supported by `Kitware`_ and developed in
|
|
collaboration with a productive community of contributors.
|
|
Please post to the ``Development`` category of the `CMake Forum`_ to raise
|
|
discussion of development topics.

Patches
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
CMake uses `Kitware's GitLab Instance`_ to manage development and code review.
|
|
To contribute patches:
|
|
|
|
#. Fork the upstream `CMake Repository`_ into a personal account.
|
|
#. Run `Utilities/SetupForDevelopment.sh`_ for local git configuration.
|
|
#. See `Building CMake`_ for building CMake locally.
|
|
#. See the `CMake Source Code Guide`_ for coding guidelines.
|
|
#. Create a topic branch named suitably for your work.
|
|
Base all new work on the upstream ``master`` branch.
|
|
Base work on the upstream ``release`` branch only if it fixes a
|
|
regression or bug in a feature new to that release.
|
|
If in doubt, prefer ``master``. Reviewers may simply ask for
|
|
a rebase if deemed appropriate in particular cases.
|
|
#. Create commits making incremental, distinct, logically complete changes
|
|
with appropriate `commit messages`_.
|
|
#. Push the topic branch to a personal repository fork on GitLab.
|
|
#. Create a GitLab Merge Request targeting the upstream ``master`` branch
|
|
(even if the change is intended for merge to the ``release`` branch).
|
|
Check the box labelled "Allow commits from members who can merge to the
|
|
target branch". This will allow maintainers to make minor edits on your
|
|
behalf.
|
|
|
|
The merge request will enter the `CMake Review Process`_ for consideration.

======================
|
|
|
|
The *integration testing* step of the `CMake Review Process`_ uses a set of
|
|
testing machines that follow an integration branch on their own schedule to
|
|
drive testing and submit results to the `CMake CDash Page`_. Anyone is
|
|
welcome to provide testing machines in order to help keep support for their
|
|
platforms working.
|
|
|
|
See documentation on `CMake Testing Process`_ for more information.
