Contributing to Composer
========================
Please note that this project is released with a
[Contributor Code of Conduct](http://contributor-covenant.org/version/1/0/0/).
By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.
Reporting Issues
----------------
When reporting issues, please try to be as descriptive as possible, and include
as much relevant information as you can. A step by step guide on how to
reproduce the issue will greatly increase the chances of your issue being
resolved in a timely manner.
For example, if you are experiencing a problem while running one of the
commands, please provide full output of said command in very very verbose mode
(`-vvv`, e.g. `composer install -vvv`).
If your issue involves installing, updating or resolving dependencies, the
chance of us being able to reproduce your issue will be much higher if you
share your `composer.json` with us.
Installation from Source
------------------------
Prior to contributing to Composer, you must be able to run the test suite.
To achieve this, you need to acquire the Composer source code:
1. Run `git clone https://github.com/composer/composer.git`
2. Download the [`composer.phar`](https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar) executable
3. Run Composer to get the dependencies: `cd composer && php ../composer.phar install`
You can run the test suite by executing `vendor/bin/phpunit` when inside the
composer directory, and run Composer by executing the `bin/composer`. To test
your modified Composer code against another project, run `php
/path/to/composer/bin/composer` inside that project's directory.
