I’ve updated the documentation for the pppoe and mobile_ppp connections in the netctl.profile(5) manpage. How should I submit it, a patch to this list or a pull-request to the git repo on projects.archlinux.org?
A pull-request is a bit hard to review (and thats one thing this list is for). Therefore I prefer patches to the list (git format-patch style for ease of applying).
The changes to the documentation look good, although there are some indentation issues. In the documentation all lines should be within 72 characters and indentation is 4 spaces deep.
I'm looking forward to your patches, - Jouke
Hi Robbie,
Here’s the patch for the documentation.
Ah, but in this form (patch as attachment), we still don't have the benefits we could. I'll deal with it for this one, but next time, make sure to use `git format-patch`, so that the patch is in-lined, easy to review and easy to apply.
On a different note, is this okay with you? https://github.com/joukewitteveen/netctl/pull/26/files
Regards, - Jouke
I’m new to contributing to open-source projects, so finding out how to format and submit contributions feels a bit trial-and-error. Is there information for new contributors in, say, the (dev) wiki? And yeah, that patch is fine. I’ve only implemented the code that I needed to get my modem to work, so there’s almost certainly things that I’ve missed. Hopefully no (major) bugs but definitely missing features. - Robbie
