# Contributing

Full contributor guide:
[`CONTRIBUTING.md`](https://gitea.dcglab.co.uk/steve/restic-manager/src/branch/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
in the repository root.

The short version:

- Open an issue first for non-trivial changes; the design is
  still moving and unsolicited large PRs may conflict with
  in-flight work.
- `make lint test` must pass.
- One logical change per commit, no `Co-Authored-By` trailers.
- UK English in identifiers and comments; comments explain the
  **why** not the **what**.
