<h1>Patching Eggdrop<a class="headerlink" href="#patching-eggdrop" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h1>
<p>Eggdrop is an open source project that depends on contributions of its users- like you! If you come across a feature you’d like to see implemented, find a bug, or think the documentation could be made more clear, you can open an issue on <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop/issues">GitHub</a> to discuss your ideas, and then submit a <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/eggheads/eggdrop/pulls">Pull Request</a> to implement it!</p>
<section id="submitting-a-patch-via-github">
<h2>Submitting a patch via GitHub<a class="headerlink" href="#submitting-a-patch-via-github" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h2>
<p>To create a patch via github:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><ol class="arabic">
<li><p>Fork the eggdrop git repo by logging in to your GitHub account and
clicking the fork button at the top of the screen. Follow the
directions it provides to configure your local repo.</p></li>
<li><p>Enter the local directory and create a new branch for your patch:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">git</span> <span class="n">checkout</span> <span class="o">-</span><span class="n">b</span> <span class="o"><</span><span class="n">DescriptiveBranchName</span><span class="o">></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><p>Make your changes</p></li>
<li><p>Once you confirm your patch works, push the changes back to your
GitHub repo - this is usually done by something similar to:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">git</span> <span class="n">push</span> <span class="n">origin</span> <span class="o"><</span><span class="n">DescriptiveBranchName</span><span class="o">></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><p>Create a pull request by clicking on the “Pull Request” button on
your GitHub page. Select the appropriate branches (usually eggheads/eggdrop/develop
and yourUserName/eggdrop/YourBranchName)</p></li>
<li><p>Fill in the Pull Request template and submit</p></li>
<li><p>Pour yourself a cold one and bask in the warm feeling of contributing
to the open source community! Karma++!</p></li>
