CraftBukkit
===========
A Bukkit (Minecraft Server API) implementation
Website: [http://bukkit.org](http://bukkit.org)
Bugs/Suggestions: [http://leaky.bukkit.org](http://leaky.bukkit.org)
Compilation
-----------
We use maven to handle our dependencies.
* Install [Maven 3](http://maven.apache.org/download.html)
* Check out and install [Bukkit](http://github.com/Bukkit/Bukkit)
* *Note*: this is not needed as the repository we use has Bukkit too, but you might have a newer one (with your own changes :D)
* Check out this repo and: `mvn clean package`
Coding and Pull Request Conventions
-----------
* We generally follow the Sun/Oracle coding standards.
* No tabs; use 4 spaces instead.
* No trailing whitespaces.
* No CRLF line endings, LF only, put your gits 'core.autocrlf' on 'true'.
* No 80 column limit or 'weird' midstatement newlines.
* The number of commits in a pull request should be kept to a minimum (squish them into one most of the time - use common sense!).
* No merges should be included in pull requests unless the pull request's purpose is a merge.
* Pull requests should be tested (does it compile? AND does it work?) before submission.
* Any major additions should have documentation ready and provided if applicable (this is usually the case).
* Most pull requests should be accompanied by a corresponding Leaky ticket so we can associate commits with Leaky issues (this is primarily for changelog generation on dl.bukkit.org).
* Try to follow test driven development where applicable.
If you make changes or add net.minecraft.server classes it is mandatory to:
* Get the files from the [mc-dev repo](https://github.com/Bukkit/mc-dev) - make sure you have the last version!
* Make a separate commit adding the new net.minecraft.server classes (commit message: "Added x for diff visibility" or so).
* Then make further commits with your changes.
* Mark your changes with:
* 1 line; add a trailing: `// CraftBukkit [- Optional reason]`
* 2+ lines; add
* Before: `// CraftBukkit start [- Optional comment]`
* After: `// CraftBukkit end`
* Keep the diffs to a minimum (*really* important)
