Bug reports

A bug is a demonstrable problem that is caused by the code in the repository. Bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you!

Guidelines for bug reports:

  1. Check if the issue has been fixed: try to reproduce it using the latest main or development branch in the repository.

  2. Use the GitHub issue search: check if the issue has already been reported.

  3. Isolate the problem: Create a minimal example showing the problem.

  4. Open an issue: Using the issue tracker, describe the expected outcome and report the OS, the compiler, and NGSolve version you are using.

Pull requests

Pull requests - patches, improvements, new features - are a fantastic help. They should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated commits. Please ask first before embarking on any significant pull request.

Tips on opening a pull request:

  1. Fork the project.

  2. Create a branch and implement your feature.

    git checkout -b <your-feature-name>
  3. Run the test suite by calling

    make test

    in your build directory. Consider adding new tests for you feature - have a look in the test folder.

  4. Once the implementation is done, use Git's interactive rebase feature to tidy up your commits.

    git rebase --interactive --fork-point main <your-feature-name> 
  5. Push your topic branch up to your fork and open a Pull Request.

IMPORTANT: By submitting a patch, you agree to allow the project owners to license your work under the terms of the LGPL License.
