Rainbows! Hacker's Guide

Tests

All tests are written in POSIX shell. See README file in the t/ directory.

Documentation

Due to the lack of RDoc-to-manpage converters we know about, we're writing manpages in Markdown and converting to troff/HTML with Pandoc.

Please wrap documentation at 72 characters-per-line or less (long URLs are exempt) so it is comfortably readable from terminals.

When referencing mailing list posts, use "yhbt.net/rainbows-public/>/" if possible since the Message-ID remains searchable even if the website becomes unavailable.

We will adhere to mostly the same conventions for patch submissions as git itself. See the Documentation/SubmittingPatches document distributed with git on on patch submission guidelines to follow. Just don't email the git mailing list or maintainer with Rainbows! patches :)

No subscription is required to post to the mailing list at rainbows-public@yhbt.net

Please Cc: everyone on replies, as not everyone is subscribed.

Building a Gem

In order to build the gem, you must install the following components for documentation:

* pandoc

You can build the Rainbows! gem with the following command:

gmake gem

Running Development Versions

It is easy to install the contents of your git working directory:

Via RubyGems (recommended):

gmake install-gem

Without RubyGems (via setup.rb):

ruby setup.rb

It is not at all recommended to mix a RubyGems installation with an installation done without RubyGems, however.
