No i have not gone through copyright assignment.
This is my first time trying to contribute to a GNU project so i have tried
following the "Contributing to GCC"@
https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html
There i followed the advice to run the patch through contrib/check_GNU_style.sh
and it came out clean. Maybe contrib/check_GNU_style.sh does not check for
indention rules and/or my editor is set up wrongly so it looked to me like i
was following the coding standard.
Hi Jesper,
Unfortunately, https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html is quite hard to follow and
outdated. I would suggest to start here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GettingStarted#Basics:_Contributing_to_GCC_in_10_easy_steps
From there, you'll get to https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/FormattingCodeForGCC
If you know how to improve those pages, for example extending them to other
editors, I can give you write access.
Cheers,
Manuel.
