Working on your first Pull Request? You can learn how from this free series How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub

Getting Started

1. Fork the project
2. Clone your fork
3. Make sure you are in the right directory: cd betheboss
4. Add an upstream remote for keeping your local repository up-to-date:

   `git remote add upstream git@github.com/san-diego-tech-hub/betheboss.git

5. Run cp env.default .env.dev
6. Grab the environment variables from a developer in the slack channel.
7. Run npm install to install the project dependencies.
8. Run npm start to start your dev environment.

Creating a new PR

1. Make sure you are on the master branch, and you have pulled the latest changes.

   git checkout master && git pull upstream master

2. Install any new dependencies: npm install

3. Create a new branch off of the master branch.

   git checkout -b [NEW BRANCH NAME]

   Branch naming conventions: fix/[BRANCH] for bug fixes, feature/[BRANCH] for new features, dev/[BRANCH] for non-user-facing changes. The [BRANCH] portion should be kebab case. For example, if you want to update the README.md file, your branch could be called dev/update-readme

4. Make changes and commit them. git add . && git commit -m "[YOUR COMMIT MESSAGE]".

   The subject of a commit message (the first line) should be 72 characters or less. If you need more room for a longer explanation of your changes, you can add a blank line below the subject and write a commit body. The commit message should be in present-imperative tense ("Update README.md" rather than "Updates" or "Updated").

5. Push your branch to your fork: git push -u origin [BRANCH NAME]

6. Open a new PR against the master branch from your fork using the GitHub user interface.
