## Submitting Pull Requests
|
||||
|
||||
Pull requests are welcome. However, please create them with a request
|
||||
Pull requests are welcome. Some guidelines:
|
||||
|
||||
* Please do not use functions or facilities that are not standard (e.g.,
|
||||
`strlcpy()`, `fpurge()`).
|
||||
|
||||
* Please run the test suite and make sure that your changes pass before
|
||||
posting the pull request. To do so:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Save the previous version of `awk` somewhere in your path. Call it `nawk` (for example).
|
||||
1. Run `oldawk=nawk make check > check.out 2>&1`.
|
||||
1. Search for `BAD` or `error` in the result. In general, look over it manually to make sure there are no errors.
|
||||
|
||||
* Please create the pull request with a request
|
||||
to merge into the `staging` branch instead of into the `master` branch.
|
||||
This allows us to do testing, and to make any additional edits or changes
|
||||
after the merge but before merging to `master`.
