via github using the typical fork-and-pull-request approach. Contributors who
do not wish to use github are also welcome to share patches using
``git format-patch --to wasp-os@redfelineninja.org.uk`` and ``git send-email``.
In both cases, the code will be reviewed by a project maintainer, so please
anticipate review comments. Typically pull requests will not be merged if there
are open questions or requests for changes that have not been acted on.

Git Hints and Tricks
--------------------
Quick fixes
~~~~~~~~~~~
The most common review feedback for contributions to wasp-os is a request that
the contributor include their sign-off. For a single patch at the head of the
current branch (and shared as a github pull request) this can be handled fairly
easily:
.. code-block:: sh
git commit --amend --signoff
git push <myfork> HEAD
Additionally, please be aware that github will not send out automatic
notifications to let the maintainer know that you have pushed an update to the
pull-request. Follow up the above with a comment on the pull request thread
saying that your contribution should be ready to go.
