Sending Patches

Seastar follows a patch submission similar to Linux. Send patches to seastar-dev, with a DCO signed off message. Use git send-email to send your patch.

Example:

1. When you commit, use "-s " in your git commit command, which adds a DCO signed off message. DCO is a "Developer's Certificate of Origin" http://elinux.org/Developer_Certificate_Of_Origin

For the commit message, you can prefix a tag for an area of the codebase the patch is addressing

    git commit -s -m "core: some descriptive commit message" 

2. then send an email to the google group

    git send-email <revision>..<final_revision> --to seastar-dev@googlegroups.com
   

NOTE: for sending replies to patches, use --in-reply-to with the message ID of the original message. Also, if you are sending out a new version of the change, use git rebase and then a git send-email with a -v2, for instance, to denote that it is a second version.

Testing and Approval

Run test.py and ensure tests are passing (at least) as well as before the patch.
