Netlify CMS uses the Forking Workflow + Feature Branches. Additionally, PR's should be rebased on master when opened, and again before merging.
- Fork the repo.
- Create a branch from
master
. If you're addressing a specific issue, prefix your branch name with the issue number. - If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
- If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
- Run
yarn test
and ensure the test suite passes. - Use
yarn format
to format and lint your code. - PR's must be rebased before merge (feel free to ask for help).
- PR should be reviewed by two maintainers prior to merging.
