We welcome your contributions to SVR.JS! By following these steps, you can submit your changes for review and potential integration into the SVR.JS codebase.
1. Fork the Repository
Start by forking the SVR.JS repository. Clone it to your local machine using:
git clone https://git.svrjs.org/svrjs.git
If you want to contribute to other project, e.g. RedBrick SVR.JS mod, replace svrjs.git with respective repository name.
2. Create a Feature Branch
Create a new branch for your changes with a descriptive name. For example:
git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
3. Make Your Changes
Now comes the exciting part! Make the necessary changes, add new features, or fix bugs in your feature branch.
4. Commit
Commit your changes to your forked repository:
git add .
git commit -m "Your commit message"
5. Generate Patches
Before submitting your changes, generate patches using git format-patch:
git format-patch -n HEAD^
This creates patch files (usually ending with .patch) for each commit in your branch.
6. Submit Your Patches
Email your patches to commit[at]svrjs[dot]org along with the following details:
- A clear description of your changes and their purpose.
- The commit ID from which you cloned the SVR.JS (or other) repository (e.g., the latest commit in your fork).
- The repository you want to contribute to (if not added, then it's assumed it's SVR.JS repository).
Please note the following:
- Maximum attachment size: 25MB
- Compress large patches in .zip, .7z, .tar.gz, or .tar.xz format.

The SVR.JS authors will review your code and provide feedback as needed. They may suggest improvements or ask for clarifications during the review process.
If your changes align with the project's goals and coding standards, they may be integrated into the SVR.JS codebase. Your contributions will be acknowledged and celebrated!
