Bug Reports

If the issue is reproducible, enable debug logging, reproduce and capture the log.
Open an issue on GitHub, with logs pasted as GitHub gists / inline.

Feature Requests

Does you feature request require default values / some kind of configuration? If so, think of an expressive configuration example.
Think of at least one use case that generalizes from your concrete application.
Open an issue on GitHub with example conf & use case attached.

The above does not apply if you already implemented everything. Check out the Coding Workflow section below for details.

Developer Documentation

Overall Architecture

The application architecture is documented as part of the user docs in the Implementation section (docs/content/impl). Make sure to develop an understanding how zrepl is typically used by studying the user docs first.

Coding Workflow

Open an issue when starting to hack on a new feature
Commits should reference the issue they are related to
Docs improvements not documenting new features do not require an issue.
