All pull requests should want merge to branch dev

Fork and clone

1. Fork on github page to your own github account
2. Clone your own fork: git clone https://github.com/<your git accout>/axmol.git
3. Add remote official from axmolengine/axmol

cd axmol
git remote add official https://github.com/axmolengine/axmol.git

Create pull-request for bugfix or feature

There are two methods to create a pull-request

1. For little or 1 file changes，just edit on official repo and press button Propose file change, then continue to create pr on github page.
2. Create a pull-request with multiple files changes:

  # we assume you already add remote `official`
  # Sync official remote
  git fetch official
  # create a branch from official latest for PR source branch
  git checkout -b feature1 official/dev
  # After finish changes on branch feature1, push it to your fork repo
  git push origin feature1
  # Then, please goto github page to create pull-request step by step.

Note: Before a pr mreged, any changes from pr source branch will be applied on pr and trigger ci build

Review pull-request

Usually, you can review PR changes on github web page, but when you want verify the PR changes on your local machine, you can merge PR to your local branch and test:

git fetch origin pull/219/head:pr219
git checkout pr219

The 219 is the PR id, the pr219 is local branch name

Some other commands

• Add chmod to file: git update-index --chmod=+x path/to/file

• Speedup git add, git status, git commit: Speeding up Git using a built-in file system watcher git-for-windows/git#3251, but may broken visual studio git management

• Change commit author email: git filter-branch --env-filter "GIT_AUTHOR_NAME='newname'; GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL='newemail@xxx'; GIT_COMMITTER_NAME='newname'; GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL='newemail@xxx';" HEAD

• Clone with submodules, --recurse-submodules also works:

  • git clone --recursive <repo-url>
  • git clone --recursive <repo-url>
  • git clone --recursive -j8 <repo-url> (-j flag only available in version 2.8+):

• show current branch name: git branch --show-current, empty if not in branch

• show short commit hash: git rev-parse --short HEAD

• show commits count: git rev-list --count HEAD

• force reset local branch match with remote origin discard local changes: git reset --hard origin/dev
