Hello:
I have patched a few things on my local copy of 2.6.5 and I would like
to contribute the fixes back upstream. However, when I asked before
what to do with my fixes, I was told:
Submit a pull request on github - https://github.com/cobbler/cobbler
Is there any sort of "using GIT to submit simple patches for non-GIT
users" documentation? I have no idea what a "pull request" is. I don't
know how to use GIT to get a copy of the 2.6.5 branch, etc. I am
familiar with other revision control systems, but GIT seems to be quite
different and this seems to be a complicated process for a four line
patch. Is there a simple cookbook for how to do this?
Yes, I did read the documentation at:
http://www.cobblerd.org/manuals/developer/1_-_Patch-process.html
but this seems to assume I already know how to use GIT.
When I signed up at github.com, it said I needed to pay money for
space. Does this apply to one who is only submitting deltas to an
already existing project?
You only need to pay for private projects, not public. Github's help is
pretty good and should walk you through doing a pull request.
