     1  # How to Contribute
     2  
     3  We'd love to accept your patches and contributions to this project. There are
     4  just a few small guidelines you need to follow.
     5  
     6  ## Contributor License Agreement
     7  
     8  Contributions to this project must be accompanied by a Contributor License
     9  Agreement. You (or your employer) retain the copyright to your contribution,
    10  this simply gives us permission to use and redistribute your contributions as
    11  part of the project. Head over to <https://cla.developers.google.com/> to see
    12  your current agreements on file or to sign a new one.
    13  
    14  You generally only need to submit a CLA once, so if you've already submitted one
    15  (even if it was for a different project), you probably don't need to do it
    16  again.
    17  
    18  ## Code reviews
    19  
    20  All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
    21  use GitHub pull requests for this purpose. Consult [GitHub
    22  Help](https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/) for more
    23  information on using pull requests.
    24  
    25  ## Source of Truth (SoT) and Commit Process
    26  
    27  Cloudprober's source of truth is Google's internal copy of the code for various
    28  reasons. To keep it that way, we first import the proposed pull request into
    29  the internal copy of the code, get it reviewed internally, and then export it
    30  back to Github. As a result of this, original PR is eventually discarded and a
    31  new PR is merged into the master branch. All through this process, author
    32  attribution is not lost. Final change will still appear to be done by you.
