<p>Download QTAU from the Git repository like so:</p>
<pre><code>$ git clone https://notabug.org/isengaara/qtau.git</code></pre>
<p>You can submit your patches via <a href="#how-to-submit-your-patches-via-pull-requests">Notabug pull requests</a>.</p>
<div class="h"><h2 id="editing-the-website-and-documentation-wiki-style">Editing the website and documentation, wiki-style</h2><a aria-hidden="true" href="#editing-the-website-and-documentation-wiki-style">[link]</a></div>
<p>The website and documentation is inside the <code>www</code> directory in the <a href="#how-to-download-qtau-from-the-git-repository">Git repository</a>, in Pandoc flavoured Markdown. The website is generated into static HTML via Pandoc with the following scripts in that directory:</p>
<ul>
<li>index.sh: generates the news feed (on the News section of the website)</li>
<li>publish.sh: converts an .md file to an .html file</li>
<li>Makefile: with calls to index.sh and publish.sh, compiles the entire QTAU website</li>
</ul>
<p>Use any standard text editor (e.g. Geany, Vim, Emacs, Nano, Gedit) to edit the files, commit the changes and <a href="#how-to-submit-your-patches-via-pull-requests">send patches</a>.</p>
<p>Optionally, you can install a web server (e.g. lighttpd, nginx) locally and set the document root to the <em>www</em> directory in your local Git repository. With this configuration, you can then generate your local version of the website and view it by typing <code>localhost</code> in your browser’s URL bar.</p>
<div class="h"><h2 id="general-guidelines-for-submitting-patches">General guidelines for submitting patches</h2><a aria-hidden="true" href="#general-guidelines-for-submitting-patches">[link]</a></div>
<p>We require all patches to be submitted under a free license: <a href="https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html" class="uri">https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>GNU General Public License v3 (or any later version) is highly recommended</li>
<li>For documentation, we require GNU Free Documentation License v1.3 or higher</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Always</em> declare a license on your work! Not declaring a license means that the default, restrictive copyright laws apply, which would make your work non-free.</p>
<p>GNU+Linux is generally recommended as the OS of choice, for QTAU development.</p>
<div class="h"><h2 id="general-code-review-guidelines">General code review guidelines</h2><a aria-hidden="true" href="#general-code-review-guidelines">[link]</a></div>
<p>Any member of the public can <a href="#how-to-submit-your-patches-via-pull-requests">submit a patch</a>. Members with push access must <em>never</em> push directly to the master branch; issue a Pull Request, and wait for someone else to merge. Never merge your own work!</p>
<p>Your patch will be reviewed for quality assurance, and merged if accepted.</p>

<p>In your terminal:</p>
<pre><code>$ git clone https://notabug.org/isengaara/qtau.git</code></pre>
<p>A new directory named <code>qtau</code> will have been created, containing qtau.</p>
