## Submitting a feature request
Feature requests are managed in Github issues. New features typically go through a [Proposal Process][4]
Feature requests are managed in Github issues, organized with [Zenhub](https://www.zenhub.com/), which is publicly available as a browser extension. New features typically go through a [Proposal Process][4]
which starts by [opening a new issue][1] that describes the new feature proposal.
## Submitting code changes
## Making code contributions
Before you start working on new features, you should [open a new issue][1] to let others know what
you're doing before you start working, otherwise you run the risk of duplicating effort. This also
you're doing, otherwise you run the risk of duplicating effort. This also
gives others an opportunity to provide input for your feature.

- Fork the [Pilosa repository][2] and then clone your fork:
```shell
git clone git@github.com:<your-name>/pilosa.git
### Development Environment
- Ensure you have a recent version of [Go](https://golang.org/dl/) installed. Pilosa generally supports the current and previous minor versions; check our [travis file](../.travis.yml) for the most up-to-date information.
- Make sure `$GOPATH` environment variable points to your Go working directory and `$PATH` incudes `$GOPATH/bin`.
- Fork the [Pilosa repository][2] to your own account.
- Create a directory (note that we use `github.com/pilosa`, NOT `github.com/USER`) and clone your own Pilosa repo:
```sh
mkdir -p ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa && cd $_
git clone git@github.com:${USER}/pilosa.git
```
- `cd` to your pilosa directory:
```sh
cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa/pilosa
```
- Install `dep` to manage dependencies:
```sh
go get -u github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
```
- Install Pilosa command line tools:
```sh
make install
# or:
# dep ensure && go install github.com/pilosa/pilosa/cmd/...
```
Running `pilosa` should now run a Pilosa instance.
- In order to sync your fork with upstream Pilosa repo, add an *upstream* to your repo:
```sh
cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa/pilosa
git remote add upstream git@github.com:pilosa/pilosa.git
```
### Submitting code changes
- Before starting to work on a task, sync your branch with the upstream:
```sh
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git merge upstream/master
```
- Create a local feature branch:
```shell
```sh
git checkout -b something-amazing
```

Development Environment
=======================
Install Go versions 1.6.2+ or 1.7 for your platform.
Fork `github.com/pilosa/pilosa` to your own account. The forked repo will be private.
Make sure `$GOPATH` environment variable points to your Go working directory and `$PATH` incudes `$GOPATH/bin`.
Create a directory (note that we use `github.com/pilosa`, NOT `github.com/USER`) and clone your own Pilosa repo:
```sh
mkdir -p ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa && cd $_
git clone git@github.com:${USER}/pilosa.git
```
`cd` to your pilosa directory:
```sh
cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa/pilosa
```
Install `dep` to manage dependencies:
```sh
go get -u github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
```
Install Pilosa command line tools:
```sh
make install
# or:
# dep ensure && go install github.com/pilosa/pilosa/cmd/...
```
Running `pilosa` should now run a Pilosa instance.
In order to sync your fork with upstream Pilosa repo, add an *upstream* to your repo:
```sh
cd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/pilosa/pilosa
git remote add upstream git@github.com:pilosa/pilosa.git
```
Before starting to work on a task, sync your branch with the upstream:
```sh
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git merge upstream/master
```
Create a branch for the task:
```sh
git checkout -b a-branch-for-the-task
```
Update the code in the branch, and commit it.
Push it to your own repo:
```sh
git push --set-upstream origin a-branch-for-the-task
```
All left to do is creating a pull request on github.com.
