Contributions Without Ticket
Contributions for minor corrections and improvements without a corresponding Help Wanted
ticket are welcome. For example, a pull request for a bug or incremental improvement, with less than 20 lines of code change, is usually accepted if the change to existing behaviour is minor.
All pull requests submitted without a corresponding ticket will first be reviewed by a core team product manager. Some examples of minor corrections and improvements include:
- Fix a formatting error in help text
- Fix success typo in Makefile
- Fix broken Cancel button in Edit Webhooks screen
- Fix Android app crashing when saving user notification settings
- Fix recent mentions search not working
Note: For pull requests greater than 20 lines of code, a Help Wanted
ticket should be opened by the core team. This helps ensure that everything going into the project aligns with a unified vision. Core committers who review the PR are entitled to reject it if there isn't a Help Wanted
ticket and feel it significantly changes behavior or user expectations.
The best way to discuss opening a Help Wanted
ticket with the core team is by starting a conversation in Contributors channel or opening an issue in the GitHub repository.
