- To add test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do it, please ask on our [Slack](https://slack.min.io) channel.
- To run `make verifiers`
- To squash your commits into a single commit. `git rebase -i`. It's okay to force update your pull request.
- To run `make test` and `make build` completes.

### Commit changes

    // Write metadata to the end of the file.
    writeMetadata(upstreamSize)
    file!!.channel.force(false)

    // Once everything else is in place we can swap the dirty header for a clean one.
    writeHeader(PREFIX_CLEAN, upstreamSize, metadata.size.toLong())
    file!!.channel.force(false)

    // This file is complete.
    synchronized(this@Relay) {
      complete = true
    }

Pruning the entire Cache to clear space temporarily can be done using evictAll.

```kotlin
cache.evictAll()
```

Removing individual items can be done using the urls iterator.
This would be typical after a user initiates a force refresh by a pull to refresh type action.

```java
    val urlIterator = cache.urls()
    while (urlIterator.hasNext()) {
      if (urlIterator.next().startsWith("https://www.google.com/")) {
        urlIterator.remove()

    public DecoupledClassLoader(URL[] urls) {
      super(urls);
    }

    @Override
    protected synchronized Class<?> loadClass(String name, boolean resolve)
        throws ClassNotFoundException {
      // Force Finalizer to load from this class loader, not its parent.
      if (name.equals(Finalizer.class.getName())) {
        Class<?> clazz = findClass(name);
        if (resolve) {
          resolveClass(clazz);
        }

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.

  // - All: all dry run stages will be processed
  // +optional
  repeated string dryRun = 1;

  // Force is going to "force" Apply requests. It means user will
  // re-acquire conflicting fields owned by other people. Force
  // flag must be unset for non-apply patch requests.
  // +optional
  optional bool force = 2;

  // fieldManager is a name associated with the actor or entity

memory regions until the garbage collector is able to determine that it is
safe. Typically, a use-after-free bug will result in a fault and a helpful
error message, but this package reserves the right to not force a fault on
freed memory. That means a valid implementation of this package is to just
allocate all memory the way the runtime normally would, and in fact, it
reserves the right to occasionally do so for some Go values.
