@ -24,6 +24,10 @@ When sending single patches, please use something like:
You are encouraged to fork the mirror on GitHub https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded
to share your patches, this is preferred for patch sets consisting of more than one patch.
Note, it is discouraged to send patches via GitHub pull request system. Such
patches get less attention from developers and can be mishandled or not
reviewed properly. Please use emails instead.
Other services like GitLab, repo.or.cz or self-hosted setups are of course accepted as well,
'git fetch <remote>' works the same on all of them. We recommend GitHub because it is free, easy
to use, has been proven to be reliable and has a really good web GUI.
