I invite you to a tour of pointers to
get into the usable configuration mangament system, cdist.</p><p>The first thing to know is probably that cdist is brought to
you by people who care about how code looks like and who think
twice before merging or implementing a feature: Less features
with good usability are far better than the opposite.</p></div><div class="section" title="3. REPORTING BUGS"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="_reporting_bugs"></a>3. REPORTING BUGS</h2></div></div></div><p>If you believe youve found a bug and verified that it is
in the latest version, drop a mail to the cdist mailing list,
subject prefixed with "[BUG] " or create an issue on github.</p></div><div class="section" title="4. CODING CONVENTIONS (EVERYWHERE)"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="_coding_conventions_everywhere"></a>4. CODING CONVENTIONS (EVERYWHERE)</h2></div></div></div><p>If something should be better done or needs to fixed, add the word FIXME

everybody using cdist, youre welcome to propose inclusion into upstream.</p><p>There are though some requirements to ensure your changes dont break others
work nor kill the authors brain:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem">
All files should contain the usual header (Author, Copying, etc.)
</li><li class="listitem">
Code submission must be done via git
</li><li class="listitem">
Do not add conf/manifest/init - This file should only be touched in your
private branch!
</li><li class="listitem">
Code to be included should be branched of the upstream "master" branch
</li><li class="listitem">
Exception: Bugfixes to a version branch
</li><li class="listitem">
On a merge request, always name the branch I should pull from
</li><li class="listitem">
Always ensure <span class="strong"><strong>all</strong></span> manpages build. Use <span class="strong"><strong>./build man</strong></span> to test.
</li><li class="listitem">
If you developed more than <span class="strong"><strong>one</strong></span> feature, consider submitting them in
seperate branches. This way one feature can already be included, even if
the other needs to be improved.
</li></ul></div><p>As soon as your work meets these requirements, you can contact me
(IRC, Mailinglist, Phone, RFC 1149) and Ill check your code before
including it.</p></div><div class="section" title="6. HOW TO SUBMIT A NEW TYPE"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="_how_to_submit_a_new_type"></a>6. HOW TO SUBMIT A NEW TYPE</h2></div></div></div><p>Submitting a type works as described above, with the additional requirement
that a corresponding manpage named man.text in asciidoc format with
the manpage-name "cdist-type__NAME" is included in the type directory
AND asciidoc is able to compile it (i.e. do NOT have to many "=" in the second
line).</p></div><div class="section" title="7. SEE ALSO"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="_see_also"></a>7. SEE ALSO</h2></div></div></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem">
