start by opening a new issue describing the bug or feature you're intending to
fix. Even if you think it's relatively minor, it's helpful to know what people
are working on. And as mentioned above, API changes should be discussed
thoroughly before moving to code.

Some examples of types of pull requests that are immediately helpful:

  - Fixing a bug without changing a public API.
  - Fixing or improving documentation.

Contributing to Apache Maven
======================

You have found a bug or you have an idea for a cool new feature? Contributing

## Before filing an issue

If you are unsure whether you have found a bug, please consider asking in the [golang-nuts mailing
list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts) or [other forums](https://golang.org/help/) first. If
the behavior you are seeing is confirmed as a bug or issue, it can easily be re-raised in the issue tracker.

## Filing issues

If you've found a bug, please contribute a failing test case so we can study and fix it.

If you have a new feature idea, please build it in an external library. There are
[many libraries][works_with_okhttp] that sit on top or hook in via existing APIs. If you build
something that integrates with OkHttp, tell us so that we can link it!

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

guidelines for MinIO?

``MinIO`` is fully conformant with Golang style. Refer: [Effective Go](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments) article from Golang project. If you observe offending code, please feel free to send a pull request or ping us on [Slack](https://slack.min.io)....

- Favour a working external library if appropriate.  There are many examples of OkHttp libraries that can sit on top or hook in via existing APIs.
- Get working code on a personal branch with tests before you submit a PR.
- OkHttp is a small and light dependency.  Don't introduce new dependencies or major new functionality.
