## Add an entry to the changelog
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your contribution changes the behavior of `bat` (as opposed to a typo-fix
|
|
|
|
|
in the documentation), please update the [`CHANGELOG.md`](CHANGELOG.md) file
|
2020-12-01 19:38:14 +01:00
|
|
|
and describe your changes. This makes the release process much easier and
|
2020-10-29 19:46:36 +01:00
|
|
|
therefore helps to get your changes into a new `bat` release faster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The top of the `CHANGELOG` contains a *"unreleased"* section with a few
|
|
|
|
|
subsections (Features, Bugfixes, …). Please add your entry to the subsection
|
2020-12-01 19:38:14 +01:00
|
|
|
that best describes your change.
|

## Adding a new feature
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
[feature request ticket](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat/issues/new?assignees=&labels=feature-request&template=feature_request.md)

## Adding new syntaxes/languages or themes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before you make a pull request that adds a new syntax or theme, please read
|
|
|
|
|
the [Customization](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#customization) section
|
|
|
|
|
in the README first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you really think that a particular syntax or theme should be added for all
|
|
|
|
|
users, please read the corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
[documentation](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat/blob/master/doc/assets.md)
|
|
|
|
|
first.
