The Project is Develop with Github¶
Github is used to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
Github Flow is used, So All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests¶
Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (Github Flow is used). Pull requests are welcome:
- Fork the repo and create your branch from master.
- If you’ve added code that should be tested, add tests.
- If you’ve changed APIs, update the documentation.
- Ensure the test suite passes.
- Submit test folder listing with files and files description to replicate tests.
- Make sure your code lints (pylint).

Report bugs using Github’s issues We use GitHub issues to track public bugs.¶
Report a bug by opening a new issue; it’s that easy!
Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code¶
Good Bug Reports tend to have:
- A quick summary and/or background
- Steps to reproduce
- Be specific!
- Program version.
- Copy of command line.
- List of files in the directories used. This is better achieved using the <Check Files> button and including the log file found in HOMEDIRECTORY/.MKVBatchMultiplex/MKVBatchMultiplex.log.
- Structure of the files, list of tracks type and order in media files.
- If tracks are raw please specify the type if it cannot be deduced by file extension.
- Include a log file.
- What you expected would happen
- What actually happens
- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn’t work). Also the activate and attach log file.
