I'm just wondering what the best way to be able to
contribute code
into the rtl-sdr project is?
Clone our git tree and make reasonably-sized commits (one bugfix /
logical change per commit), put your email/realname in the git config
and write a short summary of your commit.
Then use git send-email to send the patches to the osmocom-sdr
mailinglist.
I've added support for the FC0012 tuner (based on
the dvb driver and
cleaned up some), and would much rather contribute directly rather
than fork it just for the sake of the stuff I write.
If you think there will be regular contributions, we could give you
git commit access. But even in that case, we normally expect developers
to commit to a private branch from which the maintainer (in this case
Steve Markgraf) will cherry-pick or merge.
Regards,
Harald
