> do you want them squashed immediately > As a reviewer I prefer independant commits to avoir having to re-read everything but the README suggests you prefer to squash everything. I totally agree. It doesn't really matter if the changes are short (as here). But if it's about hundred or more lines of code, separate commits (each with a [meaningful commit message](http://www.commitstrip.com/en/2017/09/12/versioning-is-important/)) are better. Same applies if a larger contribution includes automatic code reformats or refactorings (usually no need to review them, at least, not carefully). > What is the correct way to test such a change to nutch script help? I ran ant zip-bin and redeployed the code locally but maybe there is something faster, working directly in-tree? 1. compile Nutch and build the runtime: `ant runtime` or just `ant` 2. then call `runtime/local/bin/nutch` (have a look at the environment variables in `bin/nutch` which allow to override the log folder or directories where config files are loaded from) Testing of distributed mode is naturally much more complex (eg. see [here](/sebastian-nagel/nutch-test-single-node-cluster)) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
