[flasher scripts PATCH] Add a README file

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx>

A plain README.txt is a more commit name for a README file than the
existing README-*.txt files. This will help direct users to the correct
file they need to read.

Also add a section describing how/where to send patches, etc.

+Submitting Changes
+==================
+
+To submit patches to this project, please use the following commands:
+
+* git format-patch --subject-prefix="flasher scripts PATCH"
+
+  Creates a patch file from your git commit.
+
+* git send-email --to linux-tegra@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx *.patch
+
+  Sends the patch by email to the Tegra mailing list.
+
+Even though the primary upstream repository for this project is hosted on
+github, contributions aren't accepted via github pull requests. Github pull
+requests would bypass public code review on the project mailing list.
+
+Patches should be signed off (include a signed-off-by line) to indicate your
+acceptance of the code's license (see COPYING and the license header in each
+file). See http://developercertificate.org/ for details of what signed-off-by
+implies.
