# Contributing to Klipper
Thank you for contributing to Klipper! Please take a moment to read
this document.
## Creating a new issue
Please see the [contact page](Contact.md) for information on creating
an issue. In particular, **we need the klippy.log file** attached to
bug reports. Also, be sure to read the [FAQ](FAQ.md) to see if a
similar issue has already been raised.
## Submitting a pull request
Contributions of Code and documentation are managed through github
pull requests. Each commit should have a commit message formatted
similar to the following:
```
module: Capitalized, short (50 chars or less) summary
More detailed explanatory text, if necessary. Wrap it to about 75
characters or so. In some contexts, the first line is treated as the
subject of an email and the rest of the text as the body. The blank
line separating the summary from the body is critical (unless you omit
the body entirely); tools like rebase can get confused if you run the
two together.
Further paragraphs come after blank lines..
Signed-off-by: My Name <myemail@example.org>
```
It is important to have a "Signed-off-by" line on each commit - it
certifies that you agree to the
[developer certificate of origin](developer-certificate-of-origin). It
must contain your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous
contributions) and contain a current email address.
