How to report a bug

Report bugs on the Issue Tracker.

When filing an issue, make sure to answer these questions:

How to submit changes

Open a pull request to submit changes to this project.

Your pull request needs to meet the following guidelines for acceptance:

  • The test suite should ideally pass without errors and warnings.
  • Ideally add tests for your changes.
  • If your changes add functionality, update the documentation accordingly.

Feel free to submit early, though—we can always iterate on this.

To run linting and code formatting checks before committing your change, you can run the following make command:

It is recommended to open an issue before starting work on any major changes. This will allow a chance to talk it over with the owners and validate your approach.
