mrtg−contrib − Contribution Guidelines for MRTG
If you have written an extension to mrtg or created a bug fix, please consider contributing it to the project. As I get quite a number of contributions every week, here are a few guidelines which explain how to contribute so that I can use the contribution without too much additional work.
Translations
MRTG messages have been translated to a number of
languages but there are still many which have not been
covered yet. If you want to add yours, go into the
mrtg−2.16.3/translate directory and follow the
instructions given in the README
file.
Patches
When you have created your modification or extension to mrtg
and want to submit it to me, please crate a patch for the
files which you have modified. Do not send entire files
unless they are new.
To create a patch, get hold of a copy of GNU diff (Many Unix systems will have this installed already. In the NT world you might want to get http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ to get all the nice GNU tools available.) and type
diff −−unified −−ignore−space−change old−file new−file > simple.patch
or if you have modified several files do
diff −−recursive −−unified −−ignore−space−change old−dir/ new−dir/ >long.patch
Documentation
All documentation of mrtg is done with the perl
POD system. If you want to learn about
it, type
perldoc perlpod
and read the instructions. If you have bugfixes or additions to the existing documents, make sure you modify the POD files and not the html or txt versions.
I take documentation very seriously. Whenever you create a new feature for mrtg which you want to get included in the official release, your patch must also contain modifications for the relevant pod file in the doc tree or for the documentation sections of cfgmaker and indexmaker.
