# Submit a Patch to oss-fuzz repo
## One-time Setup
1. Create github account if needed (with @google.com email address, preferably)
and log in.
1. To allow “git push” to work, youll have to add an SSH key:
https://help.github.com/articles/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/
1. Go to https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz and click on “Fork”.
1. Go to your own fork of the repo, which will be at
https://github.com/\<git_username\>/oss-fuzz
1. Click on “clone or download” and pick “Clone with SSH” method (I found that
easier to use for “git push”). Then copy that URL and run “git clone \<URL\>”
in terminal. Now you have a local repo, and **your fork** of the remote repo
will be called “**origin**” in your git config.
1. Configure a remote repo pointing to the **upstream repo**
(https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz) so that its called “**upstream**”:
* cd \<local_oss_fuzz_repo_directory\>/oss-fuzz
* git remote add upstream git@github.com:google/oss-fuzz.git
* git remote -v
NOTE: For trivial changes it's possible to edit the files in the web UI on the
main project and create a commit + pull request from that.
## Workflow for a Pull Request (Patch)
1. Go to your repo:
* cd \<local_oss_fuzz_repo_directory\>/oss-fuzz
1. Create a new branch:
* git checkout master
* git checkout -b new_feature_xyz
1. Make your changes and commit them locally with “git commit”
1. Push your changes to your fork on github
* git push -u origin HEAD
* (This will create a branch of the same name “new_feature_xyz” on your
fork “origin”).
1. Open your fork in browser and click on “Compare & pull request” and follow
the prompts.
1. If changes are requested to the patch:
* make changes to the same local branch
* commit them locally with “git commit” (but DO NOT amend!)
* git push -u origin HEAD
1. Once pull request is closed:
* Delete “new_feature_xyz” branch on your fork using the “Delete branch”
button on the pull request
* Delete local “new_feature_xyz” branch locally with “git checkout master
&& git branch -D new_feature_xyz”
* Sync your local repo and your fork with upstream repo:
* git checkout master
* git fetch upstream
* git merge upstream/master
* git push origin master
