[Maria-developers] [GSOC Students] Allow to contribute
Hello everyone! I was selected for GSoC to work with MariaDB, with task NO PAD Collatons. Me profile on github is medvdanil, and i'm planning to code in my own branch 10.2-MDEV-9711 or 10.1-MDEV-9711. Which version I should select 10.1 or 10.2? And I ask to give me access to create one of those branches and commit to it. Regards, Daniil Medvedev
Hi Daniil! The nice thing about git and Github is that you can do all the coding on your own repository. You don't actually need any specific access for the MariaDB repository. My suggestion is to create your own fork of MariaDB (by clicking the fork button on github). Here is a very short tutorial on how to do this. https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/#fork-an-example-repository Afterwards, I propose you do your development starting with the 10.2 branch, as that is the version in-development at the moment. The other versions are in maintenance and generally only accept bug fixes. Your "official" mentor (Alexander Barkov) might have a different suggestion regarding the starting branch. Go with his suggestion if he proposes something differently. Once your project is finished, you can submit a pull request to the MariaDB repository. That way we can perform a final review of it and then merge it. Here's to a great summer! Good luck. :) Vicențiu On Mon, 2 May 2016 at 01:44 Даниил Медведев <medvdanil@gmail.com> wrote:

Congratulations!
10.1 is fine, I think. You'll need to rebase to 10.2 eventually, but currently this branch is still in the flux, it'd be easier to base on something stable.
And I ask to give me access to create one of those branches and commit to it.
Just fork the repository on github and work there. Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB and security@mariadb.org
Hi Daniil, Congratulations! Nice to have you onboard! On 05/02/2016 10:09 AM, Sergei Golubchik wrote:
Please go ahead with your own repository, as Vicențiu suggested in an earlier email today.
I propose to do it in 10.2 from the start. Earlier I made some preparatory changes in 10.2, related to MDEV-9711: removed the unused "my_bool diff_if_only_endspace_difference" parameter from my_strnncollsp_xxx() and all related unused code, to make your life easier :) Also, we're planning no other my_strnncollsp_xxx related changes for 10.2, so there should not be conflicts with other changes. Thanks.
