main channel of communication for contributors.  
There are some guidelines which will make applying PRs easier for us:
+ Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work (this is usually the master branch).
  Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
+ Make commits of logical units.
+ Respect the original code style: by using the same [codestyle][code-style],

To sign off a single commit:

`git commit --amend --signoff`

To sign off one or multiple commits:

`git rebase --signoff origin/master`

Then force push your branch:

`git push --force origin test-branch`

### Fixing sanity check failures after public API changes

If your PR includes any changes to the Gradle Public API, it will cause the binary compatibility check to fail.

```
git commit -am 'Add some feature'
```

### Push to the branch

Push your locally committed changes to the remote origin (your fork)

```
git push origin my-new-feature
```
