| Getting Started Contributing to non-kernel KUnit repos |
| ====================================================== |
| |
| This page is for contributing code to repos that live outside of |
| https://git.kernel.org. |
| |
| You most likely want to contribute to KUnit in upstream Linux directly, see |
| :doc:`start`. |
| |
| Why is there a difference? |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| The Linux kernel has been around a lot longer than KUnit, and thus has rules |
| that we have no say on. However, any code that lives outside of the kernel is |
| managed by Google; it's open source and everyone has equal right to it, but |
| because it is under the Google umbrella and not the Linux Foundation's umbrella |
| it means that there are certain rules we have to follow in one place, and |
| different rules in the other. |
| |
| The details are not important, all you have to know is that if you send code to |
| the Linux kernel you should follow the rules above, and if you are contributing |
| to any other KUnit repos, you should follow the rules here. |
| |
| If you still have confusion, feel free to reach out to us. |
| |
| Sign the Contributor License Agreement |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| For any contributions not sent directly to the Linux kernel via the Linux |
| kernel mailing lists, we require contributors to sign our Contributor License |
| Agreement (CLA). |
| |
| You may sign our CLA here: https://cla.developers.google.com/ |
| |
| .. note:: |
| Your company may already have a CLA on file with Google. |
| |
| Submitting Changes |
| ------------------ |
| |
| We use `Gerrit <https://kunit-review.googlesource.com>`_ for all non-upstream |
| code reviews. |
| |
| In order for Gerrit to accept your change, you must first make sure your commit |
| messages are formatted correctly. It should have a: |
| |
| - ``Change-Id`` - see |
| https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html for |
| more information. |
| - ``Signed-off-by`` - see |
| https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#sign-your-work-the-developer-s-certificate-of-origin |
| |
| Now you are ready to send your change for review: |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| git push -u origin HEAD:refs/for/master |
| |
| For more information on submitting changes through Gerrit, please see the |
| following section :doc:`gerrit-workflow`. |
