How to contribute

Things we will merge

• Bugfixes
• Performance improvements
• Features that are likely to be useful to the majority of Liquid users

Things we won't merge

• Code that introduces considerable performance degrations
• Code that touches performance-critical parts of Liquid and comes without benchmarks
• Features that are not important for most people (we want to keep the core Liquid code small and tidy)
• Features that can easily be implemented on top of Liquid (for example as a custom filter or custom filesystem)
• Code that does not include tests
• Code that breaks existing tests

Workflow

• Fork the Liquid repository
• Create a new branch in your fork
• If it makes sense, add tests for your code and/or run a performance benchmark
• Make sure all tests pass (bundle exec rake)
• Create a pull request
