| A quick list of rules for committing stuff into netfilter git: | |
| - Always add an appropriate description, in git format | |
| (i.e. first line is a summary) | |
| - Please try to include references to bugs when the description does not | |
| include total discussion coverage or when the bug report is external to | |
| netfilter-devel, e.g. | |
| "Closes: netfilter bugzilla #123", or | |
| "Reference: http://bugs.{debian,gentoo}.org/..." | |
| - If you touch any parts of libxtables (xtables.c, include/xtables.h.in), | |
| make sure the so-version is updated _appropriately_ (i.e. read the | |
| libtool manual about Versioning:: first, if need be) in configure.ac. | |
| Adding fields to a struct always entails a vcurrent bump. | |
| - Check, whether a bump (vcurrent,vage) has already been made since the | |
| last release (no more than one per release), e.g.: | |
| git log v1.4.4.. configure.ac |
