How Can I Contribute?
Reporting Bugs
Bug reports should help to understand the issue, reproduce the behavior, and find related reports.
Before creating bug reports, please check open issues as you might find out that you don't need to create a new one. When you are creating a bug report, please include as many details as possible. Fill out any applicable template to help us resolve issues faster.
Note: If you find a Closed issue that seems like it is the same thing that you're experiencing, open a new issue and include a link to the original issue in the body of your new one.
How Do I Submit A (Good) Bug Report?
Bugs are tracked as GitLab issues. Explain the problem and include additional details to help maintainers reproduce the problem:
- Use a clear and descriptive title for the issue to identify the problem.
- Describe the exact steps which reproduce the problem in as many details as possible. When listing steps, don't just say what you did, but explain how you did it.
- Provide specific examples to demonstrate the steps. Include links to files or copy/pasteable snippets, which you use in those examples. If you're providing snippets in the issue, use Markdown code blocks.
- Describe the behavior you observed after following the steps and point out what exactly is the problem with that behavior.
- Explain which behavior you expected to see instead and why.
- Include screenshots which show you following the steps and demonstrate the problem.
- If the problem wasn't triggered by a specific action, describe what you were doing before the problem happened and share more information using the guidelines below.
Provide more context by answering these questions:
- Did the problem start happening recently (e.g. after updating) or was this always a problem?
- If the problem started happening recently, can you reproduce the problem in an older version? What's the most recent version in which the problem doesn't happen?
- Can you reliably reproduce the issue? If not, provide details about how often the problem happens and under which conditions it normally happens.
Include details about your configuration and environment:
- Which version (commit)) are you using?
- What's the OS you're using?
