Contributing to Eclipse WTP Source Editing

Thank you for your interest in this project. Don't forget to sign your Eclipse Contributor Agreement before proposing any changes.

In addition to the changes you're proposing, you should be familiar with Git and using SSH keys with Git.

If you're seeing this repository somewhere other than this GitHub repository, it's not the authoritative version used for our releases every quarter. Opening pull requests or submitting changes there will be of no use.

Hints for pull requests:

  • You should import the master unit test project from the web/tests/org.eclipse.wst.sse.unittests/ location in the repository. Try to at least run the unit tests corresponding to the project for which you're proposing changes.
  • You can also run the Maven build with the standard clean and install goals. Optionally you may specify a Tycho version using -Dtycho-extras.version=${tychoVersion} -Dtycho.version=${tychoVersion} (4.0.4 and higher)and profilebree-libswith-Pbree-libs`.
  • Please refer the GitHub issue in your commit message (e.g #1). If you're fixing an old bug from Bugzilla, start your commit messages first line with the word "bug" and the bug number, e.g. Bug 12345 to refer to bug 12345 to make it more understandable in the eventual git history.

The ECA provides the Eclipse Foundation with a permanent record that you agree that each of your contributions will comply with the commitments documented in the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO).
