Hello:
I have patched a few things on my local copy of 2.6.5 and I would like to
contribute the fixes back upstream. However, when I asked before what to do
with my fixes, I was told:
Submit a pull request on github - https://github.com/cobbler/cobbler
Is there any sort of "using GIT to submit simple patches for non-GIT users"
documentation? I have no idea what a "pull request" is. I don't know how to
use GIT to get a copy of the 2.6.5 branch, etc. I am familiar with other
revision control systems, but GIT seems to be quite different and this seems
to be a complicated process for a four line patch. Is there a simple cookbook
for how to do this?
Yes, I did read the documentation at:
http://www.cobblerd.org/manuals/developer/1_-_Patch-process.html
but this seems to assume I already know how to use GIT.
When I signed up at github.com, it said I needed to pay money for space. Does
this apply to one who is only submitting deltas to an already existing project?
