+
+ Commits:
+
+ - make commits of logical units
+ - check for unnecessary whitespace with "git diff --check"
+ before committing
+ - do not check in commented out code or unneeded files
+ - the first line of the commit message should be a short
+ description and should skip the full stop
+ - the body should provide a meaningful commit message, which
+ includes motivation for the change, and contrasts
+ its implementation with previous behaviour
+ - if you want your work included in isl.git, add a
+ "Signed-off-by: Your Name <you@example.com>" line to the
+ commit message (or just use the option "-s" when
+ committing) to confirm that you agree to the Developer's
+ Certificate of Origin
+ - make sure that you have tests for the bug you are fixing
+ - make sure that the test suite passes after your commit
+
+ Patch:
+
+ - use "git format-patch -M" to create the patch
+ - do not PGP sign your patch
+ - send a single patch per mail, e.g., using git-send-email(1)
+ - do not attach your patch, but read in the mail
+ body, unless you cannot teach your mailer to
+ leave the formatting of the patch alone.
+ - be careful doing cut & paste into your mailer, not to
+ corrupt whitespaces.
+ - provide additional information (which is unsuitable for
+ the commit message) between the "---" and the diffstat
+ - if you change, add, or remove a command line option or
+ make some other user interface change, the associated
+ documentation should be updated as well.
+ - if your name is not writable in ASCII, make sure that
+ you send off a message in the correct encoding.
+ - send the patch to the development mailing list
+ (isl-development@googlegroups.com). If you use
+ git-send-email(1), please test it first by sending email
+ to yourself.
+
+ Revisions:
+
+ - add the revision number inside square brackets to
+ the subject line (e.g., use --subject-prefix='PATCH v2'
+ when creating the patch)
+ - recall the major issues discovered during the previous
+ review and explain how you addressed them or why you
+ disagree. Do so either in a cover letter, between the
+ "---" and the diffstat or in a separate message.
