Docker's Birthday Site

We are happy to accept contributions to our Birthday party site. Read this page if you want to contribute or to publish the site.

Quickstart Contributors

• Get set up
• Set your signature and an upstream remote
• Make changes on a feature branch
• Rebase your branch
• Create a pull request

Get set up

Before you begin, install Hugo; this allows you to test your changes locally. Then:

1. Fork this repository.

   Use the Fork button this page.

2. Copy your fork's clone URL from GitHub.

GitHub allows you to use HTTPS or SSH protocols for clones. You can use the git command line or clients like Subversion to clone a repository. These instructions assume you are using the HTTPS protocol and the git command line.

3. Clone the fork to your local machine.

    git clone https://github.com/moxiegirl/birthdaysite.git
   

Set your signature and an upstream remote

When you contribute to Docker, you must certify you agree with the Developer Certificate of Origin. You indicate your agreement by signing your git commits like this:

Signed-off-by: Pat Smith <pat.smith@email.com>

To create a signature, you configure your username and email address in Git. You can set these globally or locally on just your birthdaysite repository. You must sign with your real name. We don't accept anonymous contributions or contributions through pseudonyms.

As you change code in your fork, you'll want to keep it in sync with the changes others make in the docker/birthdaysite repository. To make syncing easier, you'll also add a remote called upstream that points to docker/birthdaysite. A remote is just another a project version hosted on the internet or network.

To configure your username, email, and add a remote:

1. Change to the root of your birthdaysite repository.

    $ cd birthdaysite
   

2. Set your user.name for the repository.

    $ git config --local user.name "FirstName LastName"
   

3. Set your user.email for the repository.

    $ git config --local user.email "emailname@mycompany.com"
   

4. Set your local repo to track changes upstream, on the docker repository.

    $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/docker/birthdaysite.git
   

5. Check the result in your git configuration.

    $ git config --local -l
   

   To list just the remotes use:

    $ git remote -v
   

Make changes on a feature branch

1. Change to the root of your local fork.

2. Create a feature branch.

    	$ git checkout -b my-keen-feature
   

3. Start Hugo so you can see your changes as you work.

   To do this, you run Hugo locally. From the root of your local repo:

    	$ hugo server -w
   

4. Begin making changes in your feature branch.

5. When you are done, check the status of your branch.

    	$ git status
   

6. Add your changes file with git add command.

7. Sign and commit your change.

    	$ git commit -s -m "Adding some super changes."
   

Commit messages should have a short summary sentence of no more than 50 characters. Optionally, you can also include a more detailed explanation after the summary. Separate the summary from any explanation with an empty line.

8. Push your changes to GitHub.

    	$ git push --set-upstream origin my-keen-feature
    	Username for 'https://github.com': moxiegirl
    	Password for 'https://moxiegirl@github.com': 
   

   Git prompts you for your GitHub username and password. Then, the command returns a result.

9. Open your browser to Github.

10. Navigate to your birthdaysite fork.

11. Make sure the my-keen-feature branch exists, that it has your commit, and the commit is signed.

Rebase your branch

Always rebase and squash your commits before making a pull request.

1. Fetch any of the last minute changes from docker/birthdaysite.

    $ git fetch upstream master
   

2. Start an interactive rebase.

    $ git rebase -i upstream/master
   

3. Rebase opens an editor with a list of commits.

    pick 1a79f55 Tweak some of images
    pick 3ce07bb Add a new line 
   

If you run into trouble, git --rebase abort removes any changes and gets you back to where you started.

4. Squash the pick keyword with squash on all but the first commit.

    pick 1a79f55 Tweak some of images
    squash 3ce07bb Add a new line 
   

   After closing the file, git opens your editor again to edit the commit message.

5. Edit and save your commit message.

   git commit -s

Make sure your message includes your signature.

8. Push any changes to your fork on GitHub.

    $ git push origin my-keen-feature
   

Create a pull request

1. Open your browser to your fork on GitHub.

   You should see the latest activity from your branch.

2. Click "Compare & pull request."

   The system displays the pull request dialog. The pull request compares your changes to the master branch on the docker/birthdaysite repository.

3. Edit the dialog's description and add a reference to the issue you are fixing.

   GitHub helps you out by searching for the issue as you type.

4. Scroll down and verify the PR contains the commits and changes you expect.

   For example, is the file count correct? Are the changes in the files what you expect.

5. Press "Create pull request".

   The system creates the request and opens it for you in the docker/birthdaysite repository.

6. Participate in the PR review.
