You will need to use +your LF ID to access to all the AGL community development tools, +including [Gerrit](http://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/), +[Jira](https://jira.automotivelinux.org/) and the +[Wiki](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/) (for editing, only). + +**NOTE:** Further information about Contributing to the AGL Distro +available at [AGL wiki](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/agl-distro/contributing). + +## Creating Linux Foundation ID + + 1. Go to the [Linux Foundation ID website](https://identity.linuxfoundation.org/). + + 2. Select the option `I need to create a Linux Foundation ID`, and fill + out the form that appears. (It is advised to authenticate through email + instead of logging through Facebook/Google/Github.) + + 3. Wait a few minutes, then look for an email message with the subject + line: `Validate your Linux Foundation ID email`. + + 4. Open the received URL to validate your email address. + + 5.

If you already have an SSH +key pair, you can skip the part of this section that explains how to generate one. + +What follows explains how to generate an SSH key pair in a Linux environment --- +follow the equivalent steps on your OS. + +First, create an SSH key pair with the command: +**Note:** This guide recommends using ed25519 keys because it has been found that this type works well across all operating systems. + + ```sh + $ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_name@example.com" + ``` + +**Note:** When you’re prompted to “Enter a file in which to save the key” press Enter. This accepts the default location. Next, it will ask you for a password to protect the private key as +it generates a unique key. Please keep this password private, and DO NOT +enter a blank password. + +The generated SSH key pair can be found in the files ``~/.ssh/id_ed25519`` and +``~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub``. + +Next, add the private key in the ``id_ed25519`` file to your key ring, e.g.: + + ```sh + $ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 + ``` + +Finally, add the public key of the generated key pair to the Gerrit +server, with the following steps: + +1. Go to [Gerrit](http://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/). + +2. Click on your account name in the upper right corner. + +3. From the pop-up menu, select ``Settings``. + +4. On the left side menu, click on ``SSH Public Keys``. + +5. Paste the contents of your public key ``~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`` and click + ``Add key``. + +**Note:** The ``id_ed25519.pub`` file can be opened with any text editor or you can run the command ``cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`` in your terminal and copy output. Ensure that all the contents of the file are selected, copied and pasted into the ``Add SSH key`` window in Gerrit. + +**Note:** The SSH key generation instructions operate on the assumption +that you are using the default naming. It is possible to generate +multiple SSH keys and to name the resulting files differently. See the +[ssh-keygen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh-keygen) documentation for +details on how to do that. Once you have generated non-default keys, you +need to configure SSH to use the correct key for Gerrit. In that case, +you need to create a ``~/.ssh/config`` file with command ``touch ~/.ssh/config`` and add details in config file. + +``` +host gerrit.automotivelinux.org + HostName gerrit.automotivelinux.org + IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 + User <LFID> + Port 29418 +``` + +`<LFID>` is your Linux Foundation ID(username) and the value of IdentityFile is the +name of the public key file you generated. + +**Warning:** Potential Security Risk!

The steps to install git review +are beyond the scope of this document. Refer to the [git review +documentation](https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HowTo/FirstTimers) +for the installation process. + +To check out a specific change using Git, the following command usually works: + +```sh +$ git review -d CHANGEID +``` + +If you don't have Git-review installed, the following commands will do the same +thing: + +```sh +$ git fetch REMOTE refs/changes/NN/CHANGEIDNN/VERSION \ && git checkout FETCH_HEAD +``` + +For example, for the 4th version of change 2464, NN is the first two digits +(24): + +```sh +$ git fetch REMOTE refs/changes/24/2464/4 \ && git checkout FETCH_HEAD +``` + +## Using Sandbox Branches + +You can create your own branches to develop features. The branches are pushed to +the ``refs/heads/sandbox/USERNAME/BRANCHNAME`` location. + +These commands ensure the branch is created in Gerrit's server. + +```sh +$ git checkout -b sandbox/USERNAME/BRANCHNAME +$ git push --set-upstream REMOTE HEAD:refs/heads/sandbox/USERNAME/BRANCHNAME +``` + +Usually, the process to create content is: + +- develop the code, +- break the information into small commits, +- submit changes, +- apply feedback, +- rebase. + +The next command pushes forcibly without review: + +```sh +$ git push REMOTE sandbox/USERNAME/BRANCHNAME +``` + +You can also push forcibly with review: + +```sh +$ git push REMOTE HEAD:ref/for/sandbox/USERNAME/BRANCHNAME +``` + +## Updating the Version of a Change + +During the review process, you might be asked to update your change. It is +possible to submit multiple versions of the same change. Each version of the +change is called a patch set. + +Always maintain the **Change-Id** that was assigned. For example, there is a +list of commits, **c0...c7**, which were submitted as a topic branch: + +```sh + +$ git log REMOTE/master..master + + c0 + ... + c7 + +$ git push REMOTE HEAD:refs/for/master/SOMETOPIC +``` + +After you get reviewers' feedback, there are changes in **c3** and **c4** that +must be fixed. If the fix requires rebasing, rebasing changes the commit Ids, +see the [rebasing](http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Branching-Rebasing) section +for more information.

Pull with a +rebase as follows: + +```sh +$ git pull --rebase REMOTE master +``` + +This pulls **a5-a7** and re-apply **c0-c7** on top of them: + +```sh +$ git log --oneline REMOTE/master..master +a0 +... +a7 +c0 +c1 +... +c7 +``` + +## Getting Better Logs from Git + +Use these commands to change the configuration of Git in order to produce better +logs: + +```sh +$ git config log.abbrevCommit true +``` + +The command above sets the log to abbreviate the commits' hash. + +```sh +$ git config log.abbrev 5 +``` + +The command above sets the abbreviation length to the last 5 characters of the +hash. + +```sh +$ git config format.pretty oneline +``` + +The command above avoids the insertion of an unnecessary line before the Author +line. diff --git a/docs/07_How_To_Contribute/07_General_Guidelines.md b/docs/07_How_To_Contribute/07_General_Guidelines.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3720066 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/07_How_To_Contribute/07_General_Guidelines.md @@ -0,0 +1,163 @@ +--- +title: General Guidelines +--- + +## Getting help + +If you are looking for something to work on, or need some expert assistance in +debugging a problem or working out a fix to an issue, our community is always +eager to help. We hang out on various [developer +meetings](https://www.automotivelinux.org/developer-meetings/), IRC (#automotive +on irc.libera.chat) and the [mailing +lists](https://lists.automotivelinux.org/g/agl-dev-community). We will be glad +to help. The only silly question is the one you don't ask. Questions are in fact +a great way to help improve the project as they highlight where our +documentation could be clearer. + +## Reporting bugs + +If you are a user and you have found a bug, please submit an issue using +[JIRA](https://jira.automotivelinux.org/). Before you create a new JIRA issue, +please try to search the existing items to be sure no one else has previously +reported it. If it has been previously reported, then you might add a comment +that you also are interested in seeing the defect fixed. + +If it has not been previously reported, create a new JIRA. Please try to provide +sufficient information for someone else to reproduce the issue. One of the +project's maintainers should respond to your issue within 24 hours. If not, +please bump the issue with a comment and request that it be reviewed. + +## Submitting your fix + +If you just submitted a JIRA for a bug you've discovered, and would like to +provide a fix, we would welcome that gladly! Please assign the JIRA issue to +yourself, then you can submit a change request (CR). + +**NOTE:** If you need help with submitting your first CR, we have created a +brief [tutorial](../04_Submitting_Changes) for you. + +## Fixing issues and working stories + +Review the [open issue list](https://jira.automotivelinux.org/issues/?filter=-5) +and find something that interests you. It is wise to start with something +relatively straight forward and achievable, and that no one is already assigned. +If no one is assigned, then assign the issue to yourself. Please be considerate +and rescind the assignment if you cannot finish in a reasonable time, or add a +comment saying that you are still actively working the issue if you need a +little more time. + +## Reviewing submitted Change Requests (CRs) + +Another way to contribute and learn about Automotive Grade Linux is to help the +maintainers with the review of the CRs that are open. Indeed maintainers have +the difficult role of having to review all the CRs that are being submitted and +evaluate whether they should be merged or not. You can review the code and/or +documentation changes, test the changes, and tell the submitters and maintainers +what you think. Once your review and/or test is complete just reply to the CR +with your findings, by adding comments and/or voting. A comment saying something +like "I tried it on system X and it works" or possibly "I got an error on system +X: xxx " will help the maintainers in their evaluation. As a result, maintainers +will be able to process CRs faster and everybody will gain from it. + +Just browse through the [open CRs on +Gerrit](https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/q/status:open) to get started. + +## Making Feature/Enhancement Proposals + +Review [JIRA](https://jira.automotivelinux.org/) to be sure that there isn't +already an open (or recently closed) proposal for the same function. If there +isn't, to make a proposal we recommend that you open a JIRA Epic, Story or +Improvement, whichever seems to best fit the circumstance and link or inline a +"one pager" of the proposal that states what the feature would do and, if +possible, how it might be implemented. It would help also to make a case for why +the feature should be added, such as identifying specific use case(s) for which +the feature is needed and a case for what the benefit would be should the +feature be implemented. Once the JIRA issue is created, and the "one pager" +either attached, inlined in the description field, or a link to a publicly +accessible document is added to the description, send an introductory email to +the [agl-dev community](mailto:agl-dev-community@lists.automotivelinux.org) +mailing list linking the JIRA issue, and soliciting feedback. + +Discussion of the proposed feature should be conducted in the JIRA issue itself, +so that we have a consistent pattern within our community as to where to find +design discussion. + +Getting the support of three or more of the AGL maintainers for the new feature +will greatly enhance the probability that the feature's related CRs will be +merged. + +## What makes a good change request? + +- One change at a time. Not five, not three, not ten. One and only one. Why? + Because it limits the blast area of the change. If we have a regression, it + is much easier to identify the culprit commit than if we have some composite + change that impacts more of the code. + +- Include a link to the JIRA story for the change. Why? Because a) we want to + track our velocity to better judge what we think we can deliver and when and + b) because we can justify the change more effectively. In many cases, there + should be some discussion around a proposed change and we want to link back + to that from the change itself. + +- Include unit and integration tests (or changes to existing tests) with every + change. This does not mean just happy path testing, either. It also means + negative testing of any defensive code that it correctly catches input + errors. When you write code, you are responsible to test it and provide the + tests that demonstrate that your change does what it claims. Why? Because + without this we have no clue whether our current code base actually works. + +- Minimize the lines of code per CR. Why? If you send a 1,000 or 2,000 LOC + change, how long do you think it takes to review all of that code? Keep your + changes to < 200-300 LOC, if possible. If you have a larger change, decompose + it into multiple independent changess. If you are adding a bunch of new + functions to fulfill the requirements of a new capability, add them + separately with their tests, and then write the code that uses them to + deliver the capability. Of course, there are always exceptions. If you add a + small change and then add 300 LOC of tests, you will be forgiven;-) If you + need to make a change that has broad impact or a bunch of generated code + (protobufs, etc.). Again, there can be exceptions. + + **NOTE:** Large change requests, e.g. those with more than 300 LOC are + more likely than not going to receive a -2, and you'll be asked to + refactor the change to conform with this guidance. + +- Do not stack change requests (e.g. submit a CR from the same local branch as + your previous CR) unless they are related. This will minimize merge conflicts + and allow changes to be merged more quickly. If you stack requests your + subsequent requests may be held up because of review comments in the + preceding requests. + +- Write a meaningful commit message. Include a meaningful 50 (or less) + character title, followed by a blank line, followed by a more comprehensive + description of the change. Each change MUST include the JIRA identifier + corresponding to the change (e.g. [SPEC-1234]). This can be in the title but + should also be in the body of the commit message. See the [complete + requirements](../04_Submitting_Changes) for an acceptable change request. + + **NOTE:** That Gerrit will automatically create a hyperlink to the JIRA item. + + ```sh + Bug-AGL: [SPEC-<JIRA-ID>] .... + + Fix [SPEC-<JIRA-ID>] .... + ``` + +Finally, be responsive. Don't let a change request fester with review comments +such that it gets to a point that it requires a rebase. It only further delays +getting it merged and adds more work for you - to remediate the merge conflicts. + +## Legal stuff + +We have tried to make it as easy as possible to make contributions. This applies +to how we handle the legal aspects of contribution. + +We simply ask that when submitting a patch for review, the developer must +include a sign-off statement in the commit message.
