See "hacking resources" below for recommended alternatives.
|
|
|
|
Github is a downstream mirror and is not frequently monitored,
|
|
all development is coordinated upstream on GNU resources.
|
|
|
|
* Send general questions or suggestions to: coreutils@gnu.org .
|
|
* Send bugs reports to: <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>
|
|
|
|
Before sending the bug, please consult the FAQ and Mailing list
|
|
archives (see below). Often these perceived bugs are simply due to
|
|
wrong program usage.

|
|
|
Please remember that development of Coreutils is a volunteer effort,
|
|
and you can also contribute to its development. For information about

|
|
contains a list of some quirks and unexpected behaviour (which are often
|
|
mistaken for bugs).

|
|
* Online Manual:

|
|
|
|
* Bug reports Mailing List:

## Mailing List Etiquette
|
|
|
|
When sending messages to coreutils@gnu.org or bug-coreutils@gnu.org :
|
|
|
|
* Send messages as plain text.
|
|
* Do not send messages encoded as HTML nor encoded as base64 MIME nor
|
|
included as multiple formats.
|
|
* Include a descriptive subject line.
|
|
* Avoid sending large messages, such as log files, system call trace
|
|
output, and other content resulting in messages over about 40 kB.
|
|
* Avoid sending screenshots (e.g. PNG files). When reporting errors
|
|
you encounter on the terminal, copy and paste the text to your message.
|
|
* List policy is reply-to-all, and non-subscribers may post.
|
|
* There may be a moderation delay for a first-time post, whether or not
|
|
you subscribe.

## Hacking resources
|
|
|
|
files contain information about hacking and contributing to GNU coreutils:
|
|
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/tree/HACKING
|
|
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/tree/README-hacking
|
|
Please read them first.
|
|
|
|
Before suggesting a new feature, read the list of rejected features requests:
|
|
https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/rejected_requests.html
|
|
|
|
Send a patch as an email attachment. Patches can be generated with
|
|
`git format-patch` (the HACKING links above provide examples of generating
|
|
a patch).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Copyright Assignment
|
|
|
|
If your change is significant (i.e., if it adds more than ~10 lines),
|
|
then you'll have to have a copyright assignment on file with the FSF.
|
|
To learn more see https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-assign.html .
|
|
|
|
The HACKING file (above) contains more details about how to initial
|
|
the copyright assignment process. Coreutils maintainers can also help
|
|
in this matter.
