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 *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 `REQUIREMENTS` for 1.21
|
||
gigawatts and committed with 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 a patch with our changes.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ rad patch open --message "Define power requirements" --message "See details."
