If you experience bugs or in general issues with PyScaffold, please file a bug report to our Bug Tracker.
Code¶
If you would like to contribute to PyScaffold, fork the main repository on GitHub with the help of Git, then submit a “pull request” (PR):
Create an account on GitHub if you do not already have one.
Fork the project repository: click on the Fork button near the top of the page. This creates a copy of the code under your account on the GitHub server.
Clone this copy to your local disk:
git clone git@github.com:YourLogin/pyscaffold.git
Run
python setup.py egg_info
after a fresh checkout. This will generate some critically needed files.Create a branch to hold your changes:
git checkout -b my-feature
and start making changes. Never work on the master branch!
Start your work on this branch. When you’re done editing, do:
git add modified_files git commit
to record your changes in Git, then push them to GitHub with:
git push -u origin my-feature
Go to the web page of your PyScaffold fork, and click “Create pull request” to send your changes to the maintainers for review. Find more detailed information here.
