Coding Guidelines
-----------------
- OBS Studio uses kernel normal form (linux variant), for more
information, please read here:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/process/coding-style.rst
- Avoid trailing spaces. To view trailing spaces before making a
commit, use "git diff" on your changes. If colors are enabled for
git in the command prompt, it will show you any whitespace issues
marked with red.
- Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment. Tabs are treated as 8
columns wide.
- 80 columns max
Commit Guidelines
-----------------
- OBS Studio uses the 50/72 standard for commits. 50 characters max
for the title (excluding module prefix), an empty line, and then a
full description of the commit, wrapped to 72 columns max. See this
link for more information: http://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/
- Make sure commit titles are always in present tense, and are not
followed by punctuation.
- Prefix each commit's titles with the module name, followed by a colon
and a space (unless modifying a file in the base directory). After
that, the first word should be capitalized.
So for example, if you are modifying the obs-ffmpeg plugin::
obs-ffmpeg: Fix bug with audio output
Or for libobs::
libobs: Fix source not displaying
Note: When modifying cmake modules, just prefix with "cmake".
- If you still need examples, please view the commit history.
