-GTK+ is part of the GNOME git repository. At the current time, any
-person with write access to the GNOME repository, can make changes to
-GTK+. This is a good thing, in that it encourages many people to work
-on GTK+, and progress can be made quickly. However, GTK+ is a fairly
-large and complicated package that many other things depend on, so to
-avoid unnecessary breakage, and to take advantage of the knowledge
-about GTK+ that has been built up over the years, we'd like to ask
-people committing to GTK+ to follow a few rules:
-
-0. Ask first. If your changes are major, or could possibly break existing
- code, you should always ask. If your change is minor and you've
- been working on GTK+ for a while it probably isn't necessary
- to ask. But when in doubt, ask. Even if your change is correct,
- somebody may know a better way to do things.
- If you are making changes to GTK+, you should be subscribed
- to gtk-devel-list@gnome.org. (Subscription address:
- gtk-devel-list-request@gnome.org.) This is a good place to ask
- about intended changes.
- #gtk+ on GIMPNet (irc.gimp.org, irc.us.gimp.org, irc.eu.gimp.org, ...)
- is also a good place to find GTK+ developers to discuss changes with,
- however, email to gtk-devel-list is the most certain and preferred
- method.
-
-0. Ask _first_.
-
-0. With git, we no longer maintain a ChangeLog file, but you are expected
- to produce a meaningful commit message. Changes without a sufficient
- commit message will be reverted. See below for the expected format
- of commit messages.
-
-Notes:
-
-* When developing larger features or complicated bug fixes, it is
- advisable to work in a branch in your own cloned GTK+ repository.
- You may even consider making your repository publically available
- so that others can easily test and review your changes.
-
-* The expected format for git commit messages is as follows:
-
-```
-Short explanation of the commit
-
-Longer explanation explaining exactly what's changed, whether any
-external or private interfaces changed, what bugs were fixed (with bug
-tracker reference if applicable) and so forth. Be concise but not too brief.
-```
-
- - Always add a brief description of the commit to the _first_ line of
- the commit and terminate by two newlines (it will work without the
- second newline, but that is not nice for the interfaces).
-
- - First line (the brief description) must only be one sentence and
- should start with a capital letter unless it starts with a lowercase
- symbol or identifier. Don't use a trailing period either. Don't exceed
- 72 characters.
-
- - The main description (the body) is normal prose and should use normal
- punctuation and capital letters where appropriate. Normally, for patches
- sent to a mailing list it's copied from there.
-
- - When committing code on behalf of others use the `--author` option, e.g.
- `git commit -a --author "Joe Coder <joe@coder.org>"` and `--signoff`.
