How to contribute to the tesselle packages.
You can request new features by opening an issue on GitHub. Even if you don’t feel up to coding this new feature, feel free to engage or participate in discussions in each package repository.
You can fix typos, spelling mistakes, or grammatical errors in the documentation directly using the GitHub web interface, as long as the changes are made in the source file. This generally means you’ll need to edit roxygen2 comments in an .R
, not a .Rd
file. You can find the .R
file that generates the .Rd
by reading the comment in the first line.
If you want to make a bigger change, it’s a good idea to first file an issue and make sure someone from the team agrees that it’s needed.
If you’ve found a bug, please file an issue that illustrates the bug with a minimal reprex (this will also help you write a unit test, if needed).
devtools::install_dev_deps()
, and then make sure the package passes R CMD check by running devtools::check()
. If R CMD check doesn’t pass cleanly, it’s a good idea to ask for help before continuing.usethis::pr_init("brief-description-of-change")
.usethis::pr_push()
, and following the prompts in your browser. The title of your PR should briefly describe the change. The body of your PR should contain Fixes #issue-number
