Do any devs have suggestions of what to do
instead of checking in broken
code? Or even code you're not sure about? Tips, reminders, places/ways
to ask for help?
Here are a few good places to ask for assistance in:
* this mailing list
* #mediawiki channel on
irc.freenode.net
* #wikimedia-dev channel on
irc.freenode.net
* Code Review comment area on
mediawiki.org
* bugzilla comment area on
bugzilla.wikimedia.org
If you're not sure, those are *all* better places to try something out than
committing directly to trunk without talking to anybody or getting any
feedback.
It's a bit difficult to get comments/review in the CodeReview comments area
if you haven't made the commit yet. ;-)
Sometimes the only way people can get their code reviewed is to commit it.
This is an old practice. Not to beat a dead horse, but this is all related
to the same "patches sit unreviewed" issue, etc.
