# How to contribute to Apache Arrow Go

We utilize [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) for our commit messages. This helps maintain the semantic 
versioning of this module. 

Please use the following commit types: `build`, `chore`, `ci`, `docs`, 
`feat`, `fix`, `perf`, `refactor`, `revert`, `style`, `test`.

For PRs with changes entirely within a single sub-package, please use
a scope that references that package such as `arrow/flight` or 
`parquet/pqarrow`. For more general PRs, a top level scope should be
sufficient.

For example:

```
fix(arrow/cdata): handle empty structs in C data interface

ci: update CI environment

feat(parquet): support new encoding type
```

## Did you find a bug?

The Arrow project uses GitHub as a bug tracker.  To report a bug, sign in 
to your GitHub account, navigate to [GitHub issues](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/issues) and click on **New issue** .

To be assigned to an issue, add a comment "take" to that issue.

Before you create a new bug entry, we recommend you first search among 
existing Arrow issues in [GitHub](https://github.com/apache/arrow-go/issues).

## Did you write a patch that fixes a bug or brings an improvement?

If there is a corresponding issue for your patch, please make sure to 
[reference the issue](https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/using-issues/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue#linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue-using-a-keyword) in your PR description.

## Do you want to propose a significant new feature or an important refactoring?

We ask that all discussions about major changes in the codebase happen
publicly on the [arrow-dev mailing-list](https://arrow.apache.org/community/#mailing-lists).

## Do you have questions about the source code, the build procedure or the development process?

You can also ask on the mailing-list, see above.
