Hacking on cloud-init

To get changes into cloud-init, the process to follow is:

• Fork from github, create a branch and make your changes
  • git clone https://github.com/stackforge/cloud-init
  • cd cloud-init
  • echo hack
• Check test and code formatting / lint and address any issues:
  • tox
• Commit / ammend your changes (before review, make good commit messages with one line summary followed by empty line followed by expanded comments).
  • git commit
• Push to branch to http://review.openstack.org:
  • git-review

Then be patient and wait (or ping someone on cloud-init team).

• Core reviewers/maintainers

Remember the more you are involved in the project the more beneficial it is for everyone involved (including yourself).
