* 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 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
