When submitting pull requests

• Explain your thinking in why a change or addition is needed.

  • Is it a requested change or feature?
  • If not, open a feature request to get feedback before making a pull request.

• Split up multiple unrelated changes in multiple pull requests.

• If it's a fix for a unreported bug, make a bug report and link the pull request.

• Purely cosmetic changes won't be accepted without a very good explanation of its value.

Formatting

Optimization

• Avoid writing to disk if possible.

• Make sure variables/vectors/maps/classes etc. are cleaned up if not reused.

• Compare cpu and memory usage with and without your code and look for alternatives if they cause a noticeable negative impact.
