Want to contribute? Great! First, read this page (including the small print at the end).

### Before you contribute
|
||
|
|
**Before we can use your code, you must sign the
|
||
|
|
[Google Individual Contributor License Agreement](https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual?csw=1)
|
||
|
|
(CLA)**, which you can do online.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the copyright to your changes,
|
||
|
|
even after your contribution becomes part of our codebase, so we need your
|
||
|
|
permission to use and distribute your code. We also need to be sure of
|
||
|
|
various other things — for instance that you'll tell us if you know that
|
||
|
|
your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
|
||
|
|
the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
|
||
|
|
approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch
|
||
|
|
with us first. Use the issue tracker to explain your idea so we can help and
|
||
|
|
possibly guide you.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Code reviews and other contributions.
|
||
|
|
**All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review.**
|
||
|
|
Please follow the instructions in [the contributors documentation](http://bazel.io/contributing.html).
|
||
|

### The small print
|
||
|
|
Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than
|
||
|
|
the one above, the
|
||
|
|
[Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement](https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-corporate).
