Thanks for your support! You're welcome!

• First, take a look at the issues to check if there already one on the same subject.
  If yes, you can join the discussion adding your comment.

• If no, start by openning a new issue with your proposal.

• Then, you can submit your merge request with your adds or changes following the rules explained here and below:

  • If not doing yet, fork this repository
  • create a new branch from the up to date changes branch
  • make your changes
  • push the new branch into your repository
  • submit the merge request linking to the opened issue from your branch to the changesbranch.
  • wait for the review and the merge…

DO NOT MERGE YOUR WORK into your local changesbranch, only keep it in sync by pooling from the remote Jamulus repository.
DO NOT WORK ON your local changes branch, always works from a new branch.
If the changesbranch is modified before submitting your request, keep the local changesbranch in sync by pooling from it, merge the local changes branch into your working branch, resolve conflicts and then push your changes and create the merge request.

Please note that all the discussions are in English. If it is not you're native language and are not fluent with it, it can dissuade you. Don't be afraid, you can use DeepL wich make good translations as a help support.
