Committing translation update

eugeneloza
Hi all!
I've updated locale attributes for Russian and Ukrainian languages in https://github.com/eugeneloza/asciidoctor
However, I've got a bit confused with contribution guidelines. Should I create branch, tests and documentation for the translation? Or can I just create a pull request, as those requirements seem to be relevant only for code commits?

I've previously contributed an update for the German translation, and this response reflects on the experiences I had as a contributor. Dan will have the final decision on merging AFAIK.

I see that an Ukrainian translation existed before, and you are updating it.

TL;DR: go ahead and create a PR.

The longer version:

  1. create a fork (you've already done that)
  2. create a branch (good practice to not create a PR from the master)
  3. create a pull request with a helpful description
  4. the automatic continuous integration (travis & appveyor) will run all tests
  5. if a test fails due to a translation change, push some more change; maybe cleanup git history first and use force-push
  6. if all test succeed, wait for the PR to be merged
Cheers, Alexander

Alexander is spot on.

@eugeneloza, welcome! When it comes to translations, you don't need to worry about tests (at least not right now). Obviously, if existing tests fail, that would be a problem. But there are no new tests needed. Just focus on getting the words right in the translation file and submit the PR. I may ask for someone to review if the changes are substantial, but most of the time I trust that the community will speak up if there is disagreement.

Best,

-Dan
