From 4ef759dba8d12a0bd16c58640faba0eef4379c48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakob Borg Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2016 09:36:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Update pull request template with authorship info People want to add themselves to AUTHORS. That's fine, but it's not enough as it also needs to be added to NICKS and script/authors.go needs to be run. I'd rather have us do this and do it correctly so lets document that people should not worry about it. --- PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md b/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md index aa8f3d84f..2d8e60627 100644 --- a/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md +++ b/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md @@ -13,3 +13,14 @@ if new tests are not included.
