Abstract
In this webinar, we will demonstrate how to make a contribution to a community open-source repository. Using a live demo, we will walk through the process, starting from making edits to your local copy of the source code, through to submitting them as a “pull request” and going through the review process. We will illustrate how to walk through the various steps: posting an issue, making a local code branch (and/or fork), running unit tests, pushing changes to the remote repository, creating a pull request, understanding results of Continuous Integration tests, and managing a code review.
