Preparing a pull request
Copied from the p5.js repository.
Pull-requests are easier when your code is up to date! You can use git rebase to update your code to incorporate changes from other contributors. Here's how.
Save and Update
Save everything you have!
git status
git add -u
git commit
Find out about changes
Make sure you're tracking upstream p5.js repository.
git remote show upstream
If you see an error, you'll need to start tracking the main p5.js repo as an "upstream" remote repository. You'll only need to do this once! But, no harm is done if you run it a second time.
git remote add upstream https://github.com/processing/p5.js
Then ask git about the latest changes.
git fetch upstream
Just in case: make a copy of your changes in a new branch
git branch your-branch-name-backup
Apply changes from master branch, adds your changes after
git rebase upstream/master
CONFLICTS
You will probably have some conflicts! If it’s just lib/p5.js and lib/p5.min.js, it’s easy to fix. just build the project again with grunt.
grunt
git add -u
git rebase --continue
If you have conflicts in other files & you're not sure how to resolve them... ask for help! Lauren, David, Kevin, and Kate are familiar with recent changes and can help you figure out what's new.
And finally, for great glory
git push origin
Here's a good reference on rebasing, in case you're intensely curious about the technical details. https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/merging-vs-rebasing
