#Contributing

Your pull requests are welcome; however, they may not be accepted for various reasons.

##Guidelines for pull requests:

1. Respect Notepad++ coding style.
2. Make a single change per commit.
3. Make your modification compact - don't reformat source code in your request. It makes code review more difficult.
4. PR of reformating (changing of ws/TAB, line endings or coding style) of source code won't be accepted. Use issue trackers for your request instead.
5. Only bug-fix and feature request will be accepted. For the other things, I can run static code analysis tool myself.

In short: The easier the code review is, the better the chance your pull request will get accepted.
