When contributing to another's project, it is common for the contribution to be of many commits and involve a discussion with the project's maintainer. This is supported via Radicle's patches.
Here we give a brief overview for using patches in our hypothetical car scenario. It turns out instructions containing the power requirements were missing from the project.
$ git checkout -b flux-capacitor-power
$ touch REQUIREMENTS
Here the instructions are added to the project's README for 1.21 gigawatts and commit the changes to git.
$ git add REQUIREMENTS
$ git commit -v -m "Define power requirements"
[flux-capacitor-power 3e674d1] Define power requirements
1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
create mode 100644 REQUIREMENTS
Once the code is ready, we open (or create) a patch with our changes for the project.
$ rad patch open --message "define power requirements" --no-confirm
