-If you are interested in understanding the internals of Google Test,
-building from source, or contributing ideas or modifications to the
-project, then this document is for you.
-
-# Introduction #
-
-First, let's give you some background of the project.
-
-## Licensing ##
-
-All Google Test source and pre-built packages are provided under the [New BSD License](http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php).
-
-## The Google Test Community ##
-
-The Google Test community exists primarily through the [discussion group](http://groups.google.com/group/googletestframework) and the GitHub repository.
-You are definitely encouraged to contribute to the
-discussion and you can also help us to keep the effectiveness of the
-group high by following and promoting the guidelines listed here.
-
-### Please Be Friendly ###
-
-Showing courtesy and respect to others is a vital part of the Google
-culture, and we strongly encourage everyone participating in Google
-Test development to join us in accepting nothing less. Of course,
-being courteous is not the same as failing to constructively disagree
-with each other, but it does mean that we should be respectful of each
-other when enumerating the 42 technical reasons that a particular
-proposal may not be the best choice. There's never a reason to be
-antagonistic or dismissive toward anyone who is sincerely trying to
-contribute to a discussion.
-
-Sure, C++ testing is serious business and all that, but it's also
-a lot of fun. Let's keep it that way. Let's strive to be one of the
-friendliest communities in all of open source.
-
-As always, discuss Google Test in the official GoogleTest discussion group.
-You don't have to actually submit code in order to sign up. Your participation
-itself is a valuable contribution.
-
-# Working with the Code #
-
-If you want to get your hands dirty with the code inside Google Test,
-this is the section for you.
-
-## Compiling from Source ##
-
-Once you check out the code, you can find instructions on how to
-compile it in the [README](../README.md) file.
-
-## Testing ##
-
-A testing framework is of no good if itself is not thoroughly tested.
-Tests should be written for any new code, and changes should be
-verified to not break existing tests before they are submitted for
-review. To perform the tests, follow the instructions in
-[README](../README.md) and verify that there are no failures.
-
-# Contributing Code #
-
-We are excited that Google Test is now open source, and hope to get
-great patches from the community. Before you fire up your favorite IDE
-and begin hammering away at that new feature, though, please take the
-time to read this section and understand the process. While it seems
-rigorous, we want to keep a high standard of quality in the code
-base.
-
-## Contributor License Agreements ##
-
-You must sign a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) before we can
-accept any code. The CLA protects you and us.
-
- * If you are an individual writing original source code and you're sure you own the intellectual property, then you'll need to sign an [individual CLA](http://code.google.com/legal/individual-cla-v1.0.html).
- * If you work for a company that wants to allow you to contribute your work to Google Test, then you'll need to sign a [corporate CLA](http://code.google.com/legal/corporate-cla-v1.0.html).
-
-Follow either of the two links above to access the appropriate CLA and
-instructions for how to sign and return it.
-
-## Coding Style ##
-
-To keep the source consistent, readable, diffable and easy to merge,
-we use a fairly rigid coding style, as defined by the [google-styleguide](http://code.google.com/p/google-styleguide/) project. All patches will be expected
-to conform to the style outlined [here](http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml).
-
-## Updating Generated Code ##
-
-Some of Google Test's source files are generated by the Pump tool (a
-Python script). If you need to update such files, please modify the
-source (`foo.h.pump`) and re-generate the C++ file using Pump. You
-can read the PumpManual for details.
-
-## Submitting Patches ##
-
-Please do submit code. Here's what you need to do:
-
- 1. A submission should be a set of changes that addresses one issue in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/google/googletest/issues). Please don't mix more than one logical change per submittal, because it makes the history hard to follow. If you want to make a change that doesn't have a corresponding issue in the issue tracker, please create one.
- 1. Also, coordinate with team members that are listed on the issue in question. This ensures that work isn't being duplicated and communicating your plan early also generally leads to better patches.
- 1. Ensure that your code adheres to the [Google Test source code style](#Coding_Style.md).
- 1. Ensure that there are unit tests for your code.
- 1. Sign a Contributor License Agreement.
- 1. Create a Pull Request in the usual way.
-
-## Google Test Committers ##
-
-The current members of the Google Test engineering team are the only
-committers at present. In the great tradition of eating one's own
-dogfood, we will be requiring each new Google Test engineering team
-member to earn the right to become a committer by following the
-procedures in this document, writing consistently great code, and
-demonstrating repeatedly that he or she truly gets the zen of Google
-Test.
-
-# Release Process #
-
-We follow a typical release process:
-
- 1. A release branch named `release-X.Y` is created.
- 1. Bugs are fixed and features are added in trunk; those individual patches are merged into the release branch until it's stable.
- 1. An individual point release (the `Z` in `X.Y.Z`) is made by creating a tag from the branch.
- 1. Repeat steps 2 and 3 throughout one release cycle (as determined by features or time).
- 1. Go back to step 1 to create another release branch and so on.
