How we handle patches (mmoved)

As a patch submitter

 * File a bug on https://openhatch.org/bugs/ with a link to your code (for example, a git repository somewhere on the Internet, or with patch files as attachments in bug itself.)
 * If you opt for using git (which we recommend), please read https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/wiki/Git-Workflow first
 * If you generate patches and attach them, please do a few local commits and create the patch series with "git format-patch". (Read about How to generate patches with git format-patch)
 * Make sure your patch is of good quality. Write unit tests, use PyChecker and pep8 tools; use comments and docstrings to explain things when necessary
 * Join IRC and ping someone with deployment access (e.g., paulproteus) until it gets reviewed
 * If it passes review, it should get deployed immediately.
