Contributing Guidelines 📜

HacktoberFest-22 🚀

If you are new to open-source and would like to make your first contribution, please participate in this project.

Follow the steps below :-

Git Setup Guide

To initialise Git, write

git init

1. Configure your local Git

git config --global user.name "github username"
git config --global user.email "email address"

2. Go to the first-contribution repository and Fork it.

  • The term fork refers to a rough copy of a repository. When you fork a repository, you are able to test and debug changes without affecting the original project. In addition to proposing changes to resolve bugs, forking is also used excessively for this purpose.

  • Click on Code Button and copy the URL of your forked Repository

3. Switch to your Git bash window, and enter the following :

  • Clone the Forked project on your local system
git clone [email protected]:shubhajeet1207/spymonk_asciify.git
  • Make the changes

Now open CONTRIBUTORS.md in a text editor and add your name and your github link below the exisiting one in given format

   <td align="center">
       <img src="Image_link_of_your_Github" width="150px" alt="HacktoberFest'22" />
      <br/>
      Your Name
      <a href="https://github.com/github_profile_link">Github</a>
    </td>

Note: Do not fill this detail twice or more than that.

5. Creating a Pull request

Create a branch

  • A branch is designed to encapsulate a group of changes. These changes might be thrown away, entirely rewritten or in the majority of cases they’ll be promoted into the main history of the codebase - via a merge.

  • For creating a branch

git branch branch_name
  • Checkout to the created branch
git checkout branch_name
  • Now add the files using the git command
git add .
  • Commit the changes to the local project
git commit -m "Added my data"
  • Push the changes to your forked github repo
git push origin branch_name

6. Final Steps

  • Open your forked git repository, you will get a message like as shown in the figure (if not then refresh the page).
