# Contributing to Gogs
-> Thanks [drone](https://github.com/drone/drone) because this guidelines sheet is forked from its [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/drone/drone/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).
+> This guidelines sheet is forked from [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/drone/drone/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).
-Want to hack on Gogs? Awesome! Here are instructions to get you started. They are probably not perfect, please let us know if anything feels wrong or incomplete.
+Gogs is not perfect and it has bugs, or incomplete features for rare cases. You're welcome to tell us or contribute some code. This document describles details about how can you contribute to Gogs project.
## Contribution guidelines
-### Pull requests are always welcome
+Depends on the situation, you will:
-**ALL PULL REQUESTS MUST SEND TO `DEV` BRANCH**
+- Find bug, create an issue
+- Need more functionality, make a feature request
+- Want to contribute code, open a pull request
+- Run into issue, need help
+
+### Bug Report
+
+If you find or consider something is a bug, please create a issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues). To reduce unnecessary time wasting of interacting and waiting with team members, please use following form as template in the first place:
+
+```
+- **Bug Description**:
+- **Gogs Version**:
+- **Git Version**:
+- **System Type**:
+- **Error Log**:
+- **Other information**:
+```
+
+Please take a moment to check that an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues) doesn't already exist documenting your bug report or improvement proposal. If it does, it never hurts to add a quick "+1" or "I have this problem too". This will help prioritize the most common problems and requests.
+
+#### Bug Report Example
+
+- **Bug Description**: Crash when create repository with license|
+- **Gogs Version**: `v0.4.9.0901`

+```
+
+- **Other information**: Use SQLite3 as database
+
+### Feature Request
+
+There is no standard form of making a feature request, just try to describle the feature as clear as possible because team members may not have experience with the functionality you're talking about.
+
+### Pull Request
+
+Pull requests are always welcome, but note that **ALL PULL REQUESTS MUST SEND TO `DEV` BRANCH**.
We are always thrilled to receive pull requests, and do our best to process them as fast as possible. Not sure if that typo is worth a pull request? Do it! We will appreciate it.

We're trying very hard to keep Gogs lean and focused. We don't want it to do everything for everybody. This means that we might decide against incorporating a new feature.
-### Discuss your design on the mailing list
+### Ask For Help
-We recommend discussing your plans [on the mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/gogits) before starting to code - especially for more ambitious contributions. This gives other contributors a chance to point you in the right direction, give feedback on your design, and maybe point out if someone else is working on the same thing.
+Before open any new issue, please check your problem on [Troubleshooting](http://gogs.io/docs/intro/troubleshooting.md) and [FAQs](http://gogs.io/docs/intro/faqs.html) pages.
-We may close your pull request if not first discussed on the mailing list. We aren't doing this to be jerks. We are doing this to prevent people from spending large amounts of time on changes that may need to be designed or architected in a specific way, or may not align with the vision of the project.
+## Things To Notice
-### Create issues...
+Please take a moment to check that an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues) or card on [Trello](https://trello.com/b/uxAoeLUl/gogs-go-git-service) doesn't already exist documenting your bug report or improvement proposal. If it does, it never hurts to add a quick "+1" or "I have this problem too". This will help prioritize the most common problems and requests.
-Any significant improvement should be documented as [a GitHub issue](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues) before anybody starts working on it.
+### Discuss your design on the mailing list
-### ...but check for existing issues first!
