HOW TO CONTRIBUTE TO OpenSSL\\n----------------------------\\n\\n(Please visit https://www.openssl.org/community/getting-started.html for\\nother ideas about how to contribute.)\\n\\nDevelopment is done on GitHub, https://github.com/openssl/openssl.\\n\\nTo request new features or report bugs, please open an issue on GitHub\\n\\nTo submit a patch, please open a pull request on GitHub.  If you are thinking\\nof making a large contribution, open an issue for it before starting work,\\nto get comments from the community.  Someone may be already working on\\nthe same thing or there may be reasons why that feature isn't implemented.\\n\\nTo make it easier to review and accept your pull request, please follow these\\nguidelines:\\n\\n    1. Anything other than a trivial contribution requires a Contributor\\n    License Agreement (CLA), giving us permission to use your code. See\\n    https://www.openssl.org/policies/cla.html for details.  If your\\n    contribution is too small to require a CLA, put \\\"CLA: trivial\\\" on a\\n    line by itself in your commit message body.\\n\\n    2.  All source files should start with the following text (with\\n    appropriate comment characters at the start of each line and the\\n    year(s) updated):\\n\\n        Copyright 20xx-20yy The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.\\n\\n        Licensed under the OpenSSL license (the \\\"License\\\").  You may not use\\n        this file except in compliance with the License.  You can obtain a copy\\n        in the file LICENSE in the source distribution or at\\n        https://www.openssl.org/source/license.html\\n\\n    3.  Patches should be as current as possible; expect to have to rebase\\n    often. We do not accept merge commits, you will have to remove them\\n    (usually by rebasing) before it will be acceptable.\\n\\n    4.  Patches should follow our coding style (see\\n    https://www.openssl.org/policies/codingstyle.html) and compile\\n    without warnings. Where gcc or clang is available you should use the\\n    --strict-warnings Configure option.  OpenSSL compiles on many varied\\n    platforms: try to ensure you only use portable features.  Clean builds via\\n    GitHub Actions and AppVeyor are required, and they are started automatically\\n    whenever a PR is created or updated.\\n\\n    5.  When at all possible, patches should include tests. These can\\n    either be added to an existing test, or completely new.  Please see\\n    test/README for information on the test framework.\\n\\n    6.  New features or changed functionality must include\\n    documentation. Please look at the \\\"pod\\\" files in doc/man[1357] for\\n    examples of our style. Run \\\"make doc-nits\\\" to make sure that your\\n    documentation changes are clean.\\n\\n    7.  For user visible changes (API changes, behaviour changes, ...),\\n    consider adding a note in CHANGES.  This could be a summarising\\n    description of the change, and could explain the grander details.\\n    Have a look through existing entries for inspiration.\\n    Please note that this is NOT simply a copy of git-log one-liners.\\n    Also note that security fixes get an entry in CHANGES.\\n    This file helps users get more in depth information of what comes\\n    with a specific release without having to sift through the higher\\n    noise ratio in git-log.\\n\\n    8.  For larger or more important user visible changes, as well as\\n    security fixes, please add a line in NEWS.  On exception, it might be\\n    worth adding a multi-line entry (such as the entry that announces all\\n    the types that became opaque with OpenSSL 1.1.0).\\n    This file helps users get a very quick summary of what comes with a\\n    specific release, to see if an upgrade is worth the effort.\\n
