Hi Charith, Looking through JIRA is a good start.
Before we can accept a code contribution, we need you to sign the Apache CLA (contributor license agreement) [1]. If you're on a Mac, then you can use Preview to digitally sign the document (Preview => Preferences => Signatures) and you use HelloFax [2] to fax the document in a more modern way. JIRA is the best place to get started with contributions. Each issue has a "Fix Version" field that shows what release we plan to fix that issue. So 1.9.0 are the next release, 2.0.0 are the following, and Master means we have no release set. Once you find an issue that you're into, just comment on it and let the maintainers know that you're looking into. At the moment, our Github mirrors [3] are not mirroring - it's embarrassing for us and frustrating for our users. You can still fork a Github repo and clone down your fork, but you will want to update the source by adding the official Apache repository [4] as a remote. You can combien the Apache repo URL with the repository name to form the repository's clone address. For example, the Apache Git repository for Cordova-iOS is https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cordova-ios.git. To add the apache remote and update your fork, you would: # change this address to the platform you forked $ git remote add apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cordova-ios.git $ git checkout master # update your master to the latest source $ git pull apache master # create a branch to make your contribution (JIRA issue 642) $ git checkout -b jira-642 # when done, push this branch to Github and send a pull request $ git push origin jira-642 Hope that helps, Michael [1] https://incubator.apache.org/cordova/#contribute [2] http://hellofax.com [3] http://github.com/apache [4] https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf On Thu, Jun 14, 2012 at 10:54 AM, Simon MacDonald <[email protected] > wrote: > Read up on how to contribute here: > > https://incubator.apache.org/cordova/#contribute > > Simon Mac Donald > http://hi.im/simonmacdonald > > > On Thu, Jun 14, 2012 at 4:57 AM, charithsoori <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I am very much interested in contributing to Apache through Corodova . > > I went through Jira issue tracker and observed few tasks.
