Contributing to this repository

0. Please contact the developper (Dai Yamazaki) in advance to make a discussion on the new scheme to be integrated to CaMa-Food master.

1. Create a branch from the develop4XX branch.

2. Make some modifications, following the below rules:

• The added scheme should be turned on/off by a switch. Better if it does not affect the original codes when the new scheme is turned off.
• If the new scheme causes conflicts, please discuss with the manager.
• We would appreciate it if the sample scripts are prepared to run CaMa-Flood with the new scheme. If possible, please design the scripts ready to be run by someone else. For example, avoid absolute paths, avoid environment dependent shebangs (e.g. #!/usr/local/python), describe required library required.
• If the new scheme requires additional data to run, please prepare sample data required by the new sheme (better if the size of sample data is kept minimum and should be kept outside of the git repo, i.e. only commit text/code files). If your new scheme requires data, please contact Yamazaki to discuss a better way of data management in the CaMa-Flood package.
• Test and commit your changes.

3. When your code is ready to be merged, please contact the repository manager (Dai Yamazaki). Then, we create a working branch dev4XX_PROJ to merge your branch.

4. Please create a pull request to the dev4XX_PROJ branch.

• If your commit cannot be merged by conflict, we will contact you.

5. Your new contribution is merged into dev4XX_PROJ. Yamazaki will perform further test simulations to confirm your contribution works well. Then, the new scheme is merged to develop4XX and master branch, by Yamazaki
