1.  API changes require discussion, use cases, etc. Code comes later.
2.  Pull requests are great for small fixes for bugs, documentation, etc.
3.  Pull requests are not merged directly into the master branch.
4.  Code contributions require signing a Google CLA.

        `pip install -U tf-nightly`
    *   Rebase your pull request onto a recent pull from
        [TensorFlow's](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow) master branch.

2.  If you are changing the code and the docstring of a class/function/method,
    then you will need to
    [build TensorFlow from source](https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source).

Before code can be accepted all contributors must complete our
[Individual Contributor License Agreement (CLA)][cla].
