CONTRIBUTING.md

We welcome patches from everyone. Please submit them as pull requests on github. Here are few guidelines to take into account.

• If you are submitting a patch that fixes a specific bug, please link the github issue if there is one. If there is no reported bug, please give enough information to reproduce it.

• If you are thinking about a new feature, it is a good idea to open an issue about it first (before coding) to discuss it, see whether it is a good idea, and what is the best way to implement it.

• If you are submitting a code change that you think provides an improvement, we would expect to see a test case that would demonstrate that your patch improves the situation (i.e. performance/accuracy etc).

• In general we expect all the newly added code should have a test associated with it. And we aim to not decrease the testing code coverage fraction (which currently stands at around 91%). To see how the testing is done see TESTING.md.

• LLM Policy. You are allowed to submit the PRs produced with the help of the LLM, but you MUST declare the LLM use, you should describe what was the LLM, what did you ask, and what steps did you undertake to review/verify the changes.
