# Contributing guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
We’d love you to help us improve this project. To help us keep this collection
|
||||
high quality, we request that contributions adhere to the following guidelines.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Provide a link to the application or project’s homepage**. Unless it’s
|
||||
extremely popular, there’s a chance the maintainers don’t know about or use
|
||||
the language, framework, editor, app, or project your change applies to.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Provide links to documentation** supporting the change you’re making.
|
||||
Current, canonical documentation mentioning the files being ignored is best.
|
||||
If documentation isn’t available to support your change, do the best you can
|
||||
to explain what the files being ignored are for.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Explain why you’re making a change**. Even if it seems self-evident, please
|
||||
take a sentence or two to tell us why your change or addition should happen.
|
||||
It’s especially helpful to articulate why this change applies to *everyone*
|
||||
who works with the applicable technology, rather than just you or your team.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Please consider the scope of your change**. If your change specific to a
|
||||
certain language or framework, then make sure the change is made to the
|
||||
template for that language or framework, rather than to the template for an
|
||||
editor, tool, or operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Please only modify *one template* per pull request**. This helps keep pull
|
||||
requests and feedback focused on a specific project or technology.
|
||||
|
||||
In general, the more you can do to help us understand the change you’re making,
|
||||
the more likely we’ll be to accept your contribution quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
If a template is mostly a list of files installed by a particular version of
|
||||
some software (e.g. a PHP framework) then it's brittle and probably no more
|
||||
helpful than a simple `ls`. If it's not possible to curate a small set of
|
||||
useful rules, then the template might not be a good fit for this collection.
|
||||
|
||||
Please also understand that we can’t list every tool that ever existed.
|
||||
Our aim is to curate a collection of the *most common and helpful* templates,
|
||||
not to make sure we cover every project possible. If we choose not to
|
||||
include your language, tool, or project, it’s not because it’s not awesome.
