code is a great way to give something back to the open source community. Before
you dig right into the code, there are a few guidelines that we need
contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of
things.

Some of the ideas are documented in the [Maven Wiki][maven-wiki]
which might be interesting to read and for further discussion.

Getting Started
---------------

There is a somewhat non-obvious filter present on the page that allows you to control which type of messages are displayed.
The filter is a dropdown box that appears when you click the `Severity ⬇️ ` label in the black header bar to the immediate right of the Gradle version.

If you have a large number of messages of different types, filtering by severity to see only `Error`s can be helpful when processing the report.

These are issues that we believe are particularly well suited for outside
contributions, often because we probably won't get to them right now. If you
decide to start on an issue, leave a comment so that other people know that
you're working on it. If you want to help out, but not alone, use the issue
comment thread to coordinate.

- 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.
