Developers
Using the Ticket system is the best way to submit code contributions. See for example #33.
Code quality: Check Your code according to GRASS "BestPractise" guide list.
What else: see development collection (to be moved here)
Procedure to request GRASS-SVN write access
- Main GRASS-SVN repository:
- In general, the GRASS Project Steering Commitee is responsible for granting SVN write access to contributors (as defined in RFC1).
- The requestor has to read and abide by the document Legal aspects of code contributions (RFC2).
- The request has to be send to the GRASS-PSC mailing list, stating that RFC2 was read and accepted. This requires subscription to the mailing list. If granted, SVN write access is set up (see below).
- In general, the GRASS Project Steering Commitee is responsible for granting SVN write access to contributors (as defined in RFC1).
- GRASS-Addons-SVN repository:
- Individual GRASS developers with write access can grant SVN write access to contributors.
- The requestor has to read and abide by the document Legal aspects of code contributions (RFC2).
- The request has to be send to a GRASS developer or the GRASS-PSC chair, stating that RFC2 was read and accepted. If granted, SVN write access is set up (see below).
- Individual GRASS developers with write access can grant SVN write access to contributors.
Setting up the new SVN write access
Once SVN access is granted, the requestor needs to obtain an "osgeo_id" at http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid If s/he already have an "osgeo_id" but forgot it, it can be searched at http://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/ldap_web_search.py The GRASS-PSC chair (currently Markus Neteler) and other developers can add this "osgeo_id" to the OSGeo LDAP authentication system.
Contributions have to follow the BestPractise rules (see also SUBMITTING* files in the source code).
Then what?
Get the source code and Happy hacking :) The requester should subscribe to the grass-commit mailing list which distributes GRASS-SVN commit differences for real-time code review.
