[**\[Experimental Bot, please feedback here\]**](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Fnuttx+13552&type=issues) This PR template gives a good and thorough outline of the information required for a NuttX Pull Request. Here's a breakdown of why it aligns with good open source contribution practices: **Why this template is effective:** * **Clarity and Completeness:** The template ensures contributors provide all essential details about their changes. This is crucial for maintainers to understand, review, and merge PRs efficiently. * **Structured Information:** Organizing information into sections like "Summary", "Impact", and "Testing" makes the PR easier to read and digest. * **Emphasis on Testing:** Requiring testers to specify their testing environment and provide logs significantly increases the likelihood that the PR is well-tested and stable. * **Consideration for Users and the Project:** The "Impact" section prompts contributors to think beyond just the code they've written and consider the broader effects of their changes. This helps maintain the overall quality, security, and compatibility of the project. * **Reference to Guidelines:** By linking to the Contributing Guidelines, the template reinforces the importance of following established project conventions. **To make this template even better, consider these additions:** * **Checklist:** Include a short checklist at the top for contributors to confirm they've addressed all requirements. * **Examples:** Provide concrete examples for each section to illustrate what kind of information is expected. * **Template Automation:** Explore ways to automatically populate parts of the template (e.g., pre-filling the contributor's username or linking to related issues). **Overall:** This PR template is well-designed and will help streamline the contribution process for NuttX. By providing clear expectations and encouraging comprehensive testing, it sets a high bar for PR quality. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
