Gogs is not perfect, and it has bugs or incomplete features in rare cases. You're welcome to tell us, or to contribute some code. This document describes details about how can you contribute to Gogs project.
If you find something you consider a bug, please create a issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues). To avoid wasting time and reduce back-and-forth communication with team members, please include at least the following information in a form comfortable for you:
Please take a moment to check that an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues) doesn't already exist documenting your bug report or improvement proposal. If it does, it never hurts to add a quick "+1" or "I have this problem too". This will help prioritize the most common problems and requests.
There is no standard form of making a feature request. Just try to describe the feature as clearly as possible, because team members may not have experience with the functionality you're talking about.
We are always thrilled to receive pull requests, and do our best to process them as fast as possible. Not sure if that typo is worth a pull request? Do it! We will appreciate it.
If your pull request is not accepted on the first try, don't be discouraged! If there's a problem with the implementation, hopefully you received feedback on what to improve.
We're trying very hard to keep Gogs lean and focused. We don't want it to do everything for everybody. This means that we might decide against incorporating a new feature. We believe you do like to discuss with us first in [Gitter](https://gitter.im/gogits/gogs).
Before opening an issue, please make sure your problem isn't already addressed on the [Troubleshooting](http://gogs.io/docs/intro/troubleshooting.md) and [FAQs](http://gogs.io/docs/intro/faqs.html) pages.
Please take a moment to check that an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/gogits/gogs/issues) or card on [Trello](https://trello.com/b/uxAoeLUl/gogs-go-git-service) doesn't already exist documenting your bug report or improvement proposal. If it does, it never hurts to add a quick "+1" or "I have this problem too". This will help prioritize the most common problems and requests.
