Using Parity Bridges Common dependency (git subtree).

In ./bridges sub-directory you can find a git subtree imported version of: parity-bridges-common repository.

(For regular Cumulus contributor 1. is relevant)
(For Cumulus maintainer 1. and 2. are relevant)
(For Bridges team 1. and 2. and 3. are relevant)

1. How to fix broken Bridges code?

To fix Bridges code simply create a commit in current (Cumulus) repo. Best if the commit is isolated to changes in ./bridges sub-directory, because it makes it easier to import that change back to upstream repo.

(Any changes to bridges subtree require Bridges team approve and they should manage backport to Bridges repo)

2. How to pull latest Bridges code to the bridges subtree

(in practice)

The bridges repo has a stabilized branch polkadot-staging dedicated for releasing.

cd <cumulus-git-repo-dir>

# this will update new git branches from bridges repo
# there could be unresolved conflicts, but dont worry,
# lots of them are caused because of removed unneeded files with patch step,
BRANCH=polkadot-staging ./scripts/bridges_update_subtree.sh fetch

# so, after fetch and before solving conflicts just run patch,
# this will remove unneeded files and checks if subtree modules compiles
./scripts/bridges_update_subtree.sh patch

# if there are conflicts, this could help,
# this removes locally deleted files at least (move changes to git stash for commit)
./scripts/bridges_update_subtree.sh merge

# (optional) when conflicts resolved, you can check build again - should pass
# also important: this updates global Cargo.lock
./scripts/bridges_update_subtree.sh patch

# add changes to the commit, first command `fetch` starts merge,
# so after all conflicts are solved and patch passes and compiles,
# then we need to finish merge with:
git merge --continue

3. How to pull latest Bridges code or contribute back?

(in theory)

Note that it's totally fine to ping the Bridges Team to do that for you. The point of adding the code as git subtree is to reduce maintenance cost for Cumulus/Polkadot developers.

If you still would like to either update the code to match latest code from the repo or create an upstream PR read below. The following commands should be run in the current (polkadot) repo.

  1. Add Bridges repo as a local remote:
$ git remote add -f bridges [email protected]:paritytech/parity-bridges-common.git

If you plan to contribute back, consider forking the repository on Github and adding your personal fork as a remote as well.

$ git remote add -f my-bridges [email protected]:tomusdrw/parity-bridges-common.git
  1. To update Bridges:
$ git fetch bridges polkadot-staging
$ git subtree pull --prefix=bridges bridges polkadot-staging --squash

We use --squash to avoid adding individual commits and rather squashing them all into one.

  1. Clean unneeded files here:
./bridges/scripts/verify-pallets-build.sh --ignore-git-state --no-revert
  1. Contributing back to Bridges (creating upstream PR)
$ git subtree push --prefix=bridges my-bridges polkadot-staging

This command will push changes to your personal fork of Bridges repo, from where you can simply create a PR to the main repo.
