First read the upstream README
There are a few changes that are not wanted upstream, but are useful to developing for Atlassian products
- Make it as easy as possible to use without subverting expectations
- Keep in sync with upstream
- Upstream as much as possible
Thank you for considering a contribution! Pull requests, issues and comments are welcome.
Please try to contribute upstream first. It maximises the value out of every change and keeps this fork easier to maintain. You can check upstream's issue tracker and pull requests to gauge maintainer opinion and avoid duplicate work.
Please minimise changes to the upstream code to keep syncing with upstream easy.
For pull requests, please:
- Add tests for new features and bug fixes
- Follow the existing style
- Separate unrelated changes into multiple pull requests
See the existing issues for things to start contributing.
For bigger changes, please make sure you start a discussion first by creating an issue and explaining the intended change.
Atlassian requires contributors to sign a Contributor License Agreement, known as a CLA. This serves as a record stating that the contributor is entitled to contribute the code/documentation/translation to the project and is willing to have it used in distributions and derivative works (or is willing to transfer ownership).
Prior to accepting your contributions we ask that you please follow the appropriate link below to digitally sign the CLA. The Corporate CLA is for those who are contributing as a member of an organization and the individual CLA is for those contributing as an individual.
Only Atlassians may release a new version, follow this guide.
- Java 8, until support is dropped from all DC products (currently projected for 2026-04-19)
- Maven 3.6 (because of upstream)
