Version Control

We use Github as our version control system. We have a unified process in Github for branching, testing, documentation and merging:

1. Checkout the master branch help
2. Create a new branch based on master help
3. Start a pull request an GitHub help
4. Make code changes, push to your branch regularly
5. Update/create documentation where applicable help
6. Give “thumbs up” in your pull request when you think it is ready
7. A maintainer will review the pull request and merge it
8. A maintainer will publish the documentation updates, if any help

For more details about each major part of this process, see the following pages:
