Re: [paho-dev] Improved contribution process for repositories now in Git

[Roger Light <roger@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi James,

Good work and yes, I'd like to use it for the Python client :)

One comment I have is more about the development process itself than commenting on what you've written there. I've grown to like having a develop branch for new features and a fixes branch for bug fixes. All bug fixes go into the fixes branch, then either turn into a service release and get merged into master (which is then merged into develop), or is merged straight into develop ahead of a new feature release. It's basically a simpler version of [1].

Is this a model others would consider using?

Cheers,

Hi All,

 

By moving to GitHub, the way that we contribute changes to the repositories will have to change slightly, this is due to the fact that we are no longer using Gerrit and instead will be using GitHub Pull requests to merge changes in.

 

I've written up a draft for the new contribution process for the Java repository and have submitted it in a Pull request here: https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.java/pull/2 

 

Any comments or suggestions would be very welcome as we would ideally use the same contribution guidelines across all Paho repositories once they are in GitHub.

Kind regards,
