|
|||
|
||||
Refer to [containerd's contribution guide](https://github.com/containerd/project/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#successful-changes)
|
||||
for tips on creating a successful contribution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Sign your work
|
||||
|
||||
The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch. Your
|
||||
signature certifies that you wrote the patch or otherwise have the right to pass
|
||||
it on as an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify
|
||||
the below (from [developercertificate.org](http://developercertificate.org/)):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Developer Certificate of Origin

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
|
||||
|
||||
By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
|
||||
|
||||
(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
|
||||
have the right to submit it under the open source license
|
||||
indicated in the file; or
|
||||
|
||||
(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
|
||||
of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
|
||||
license and I have the right under that license to submit that
|
||||
work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
|
||||
by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
|
||||
permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
|
||||
in the file; or
|
||||
|
||||
(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
|
||||
person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
|
||||
are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
|
||||
personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
|
||||
maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
|
||||
this project or the open source license(s) involved.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then you just add a line to every git commit message:
|
||||
|
||||
Signed-off-by: Joe Smith <joe.smith@email.com>
|
||||
|
||||
Use your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
|
||||
|
||||
If you set your `user.name` and `user.email` git configs, you can sign your
|
||||
commit automatically with `git commit -s`.

# docker/distribution Project Governance
|
||||
|
||||
Docker distribution abides by the [CNCF Code of Conduct](https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md).
|
||||
|
||||
For specific guidance on practical contribution steps please
|
||||
see our [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md) guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Maintainership
|
||||
|
||||
There are different types of maintainers, with different responsibilities, but
|
||||
all maintainers have 3 things in common:
|
||||
|
||||
1) They share responsibility in the project's success.
|
||||
2) They have made a long-term, recurring time investment to improve the project.
|
||||
3) They spend that time doing whatever needs to be done, not necessarily what
|
||||
is the most interesting or fun.
|
||||
|
||||
Maintainers are often under-appreciated, because their work is harder to appreciate.
|
||||
It's easy to appreciate a really cool and technically advanced feature. It's harder
|
||||
to appreciate the absence of bugs, the slow but steady improvement in stability,
|
||||
or the reliability of a release process. But those things distinguish a good
|
||||
project from a great one.
|
||||
|
||||
## Reviewers
|
||||
|
||||
A reviewer is a core role within the project.
|
||||
They share in reviewing issues and pull requests and their LGTM counts towards the
|
||||
required LGTM count to merge a code change into the project.
|
||||
|
||||
Reviewers are part of the organization but do not have write access.
|
||||
Becoming a reviewer is a core aspect in the journey to becoming a maintainer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding maintainers
|
||||
|
||||
Maintainers are first and foremost contributors that have shown they are
|
||||
committed to the long term success of a project. Contributors wanting to become
|
||||
maintainers are expected to be deeply involved in contributing code, pull
|
||||
request review, and triage of issues in the project for more than three months.
|
||||
|
||||
Just contributing does not make you a maintainer, it is about building trust
|
||||
with the current maintainers of the project and being a person that they can
|
||||
depend on and trust to make decisions in the best interest of the project.
|
||||
|
||||
Periodically, the existing maintainers curate a list of contributors that have
|
||||
shown regular activity on the project over the prior months. From this list,
|
||||
maintainer candidates are selected and proposed in a pull request or a
|
||||
maintainers communication channel.
|
||||
|
||||
After a candidate has been announced to the maintainers, the existing
|
||||
maintainers are given five business days to discuss the candidate, raise
|
||||
objections and cast their vote. Votes may take place on the communication
|
||||
channel or via pull request comment. Candidates must be approved by at least 66%
|
||||
of the current maintainers by adding their vote on the mailing list. The
|
||||
reviewer role has the same process but only requires 33% of current maintainers.
|
||||
Only maintainers of the repository that the candidate is proposed for are
|
||||
allowed to vote.
|
||||
|
||||
If a candidate is approved, a maintainer will contact the candidate to invite
|
||||
the candidate to open a pull request that adds the contributor to the
|
||||
MAINTAINERS file. The voting process may take place inside a pull request if a
|
||||
maintainer has already discussed the candidacy with the candidate and a
|
||||
maintainer is willing to be a sponsor by opening the pull request. The candidate
|
||||
becomes a maintainer once the pull request is merged.
|
||||
|
||||
## Stepping down policy
|
||||
|
||||
Life priorities, interests, and passions can change. If you're a maintainer but
|
||||
feel you must remove yourself from the list, inform other maintainers that you
|
||||
intend to step down, and if possible, help find someone to pick up your work.
|
||||
At the very least, ensure your work can be continued where you left off.
|
||||
|
||||
After you've informed other maintainers, create a pull request to remove
|
||||
yourself from the MAINTAINERS file.
|
||||
|
||||
## Removal of inactive maintainers
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to the procedure for adding new maintainers, existing maintainers can
|
||||
be removed from the list if they do not show significant activity on the
|
||||
project. Periodically, the maintainers review the list of maintainers and their
|
||||
activity over the last three months.
|
||||
|
||||
If a maintainer has shown insufficient activity over this period, a neutral
|
||||
person will contact the maintainer to ask if they want to continue being
|
||||
a maintainer. If the maintainer decides to step down as a maintainer, they
|
||||
open a pull request to be removed from the MAINTAINERS file.
|
||||
|
||||
If the maintainer wants to remain a maintainer, but is unable to perform the
|
||||
required duties they can be removed with a vote of at least 66% of the current
|
||||
maintainers. In this case, maintainers should first propose the change to
|
||||
maintainers via the maintainers communication channel, then open a pull request
|
||||
for voting. The voting period is five business days. The voting pull request
|
||||
should not come as a surpise to any maintainer and any discussion related to
|
||||
performance must not be discussed on the pull request.
|
||||
|
||||
## How are decisions made?
|
||||
|
||||
Docker distribution is an open-source project with an open design philosophy.
|
||||
This means that the repository is the source of truth for EVERY aspect of the
|
||||
project, including its philosophy, design, road map, and APIs. *If it's part of
|
||||
the project, it's in the repo. If it's in the repo, it's part of the project.*
|
||||
|
||||
As a result, all decisions can be expressed as changes to the repository. An
|
||||
implementation change is a change to the source code. An API change is a change
|
||||
to the API specification. A philosophy change is a change to the philosophy
|
||||
manifesto, and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
All decisions affecting distribution, big and small, follow the same 3 steps:
|
||||
|
||||
* Step 1: Open a pull request. Anyone can do this.
|
||||
|
||||
* Step 2: Discuss the pull request. Anyone can do this.
|
||||
|
||||
* Step 3: Merge or refuse the pull request. Who does this depends on the nature
|
||||
of the pull request and which areas of the project it affects.
|
||||
|
||||
## Helping contributors with the DCO
|
||||
|
||||
The [DCO or `Sign your work`](./CONTRIBUTING.md#sign-your-work)
|
||||
requirement is not intended as a roadblock or speed bump.
|
||||
|
||||
Some contributors are not as familiar with `git`, or have used a web
|
||||
based editor, and thus asking them to `git commit --amend -s` is not the best
|
||||
way forward.
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, maintainers can update the commits based on clause (c) of the DCO.
|
||||
The most trivial way for a contributor to allow the maintainer to do this, is to
|
||||
add a DCO signature in a pull requests's comment, or a maintainer can simply
|
||||
note that the change is sufficiently trivial that it does not substantially
|
||||
change the existing contribution - i.e., a spelling change.
|
||||
|
||||
When you add someone's DCO, please also add your own to keep a log.
|
||||
|
||||
## I'm a maintainer. Should I make pull requests too?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes. Nobody should ever push to master directly. All changes should be
|
||||
made through a pull request.
|
||||
|
||||
## Conflict Resolution
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a technical dispute that you feel has reached an impasse with a
|
||||
subset of the community, any contributor may open an issue, specifically
|
||||
calling for a resolution vote of the current core maintainers to resolve the
|
||||
dispute. The same voting quorums required (2/3) for adding and removing
|
||||
maintainers will apply to conflict resolution.
