+# How to contribute # |
+ |
+We'd love to accept your patches and contributions to this project. There are |
+a just a few small guidelines you need to follow. |
+ |
+ |
+## Contributor License Agreement ## |
+ |
+Contributions to any Google project must be accompanied by a Contributor |
+License Agreement. This is not a copyright **assignment**, it simply gives |
+Google permission to use and redistribute your contributions as part of the |
+project. |
+ |
+ * If you are an individual writing original source code and you're sure you |
+ own the intellectual property, then you'll need to sign an [individual |
+ CLA][]. |
+ |
+ * If you work for a company that wants to allow you to contribute your work, |
+ then you'll need to sign a [corporate CLA][]. |
+ |
+You generally only need to submit a CLA once, so if you've already submitted |
+one (even if it was for a different project), you probably don't need to do it |
+again. |
+ |
+[individual CLA]: https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual |
+[corporate CLA]: https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/corporate |
+ |
+Once your CLA is submitted (or if you already submitted one for |
+another Google project), make a commit adding yourself to the |
+[AUTHORS][] and [CONTRIBUTORS][] files. This commit can be part |
+of your first [pull request][]. |
+ |
+[AUTHORS]: AUTHORS |
+[CONTRIBUTORS]: CONTRIBUTORS |
+ |
+ |
+## Submitting a patch ## |
+ |
+ 1. It's generally best to start by opening a new issue describing the bug or |
+ feature you're intending to fix. Even if you think it's relatively minor, |
+ it's helpful to know what people are working on. Mention in the initial |
+ issue that you are planning to work on that bug or feature so that it can |
+ be assigned to you. |
+ |
+ 1. Follow the normal process of [forking][] the project, and setup a new |
+ branch to work in. It's important that each group of changes be done in |
+ separate branches in order to ensure that a pull request only includes the |
+ commits related to that bug or feature. |
+ |
+ 1. Do your best to have [well-formed commit messages][] for each change. |
+ This provides consistency throughout the project, and ensures that commit |
+ messages are able to be formatted properly by various git tools. |
+ |
+ 1. Finally, push the commits to your fork and submit a [pull request][]. |
