If there's any guidelines, a bot would mail you once you submit a PR, like it is so for Symfony subpackages. (When you file a PR against them, a bot comes in, closes it and tells you to fu... erm, file it against main Symfony repo.) > Anyhow, I see that all the patches start from master, so I will give it a > try. Why I suggest a branch is because somebody could more easily inspect it locally, when there's doubts. Checking out from remote's master is a little bit more convoluted and error-prone, than from a branch. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Sunday, May 26, 2019 20:43:59 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
