| 9 | # Pull request checklist |
| 10 | Please review the following items before submitting a pull request. This list |
| 11 | can also be used when reviewing pull requests. |
| 12 | * Verify that new files have a license with correct file name. |
| 13 | * Run `git diff` on all modified files to look for spurious changes such as |
| 14 | `#include <iostream>`. |
| 15 | * If you added code that causes the compiler to emit a new error message, make |
| 16 | sure that you also added a test that causes that error message to appear |
| 17 | and verifies its correctness. |
| 18 | * Annotate the code and tests with appropriate references to constraint and |
| 19 | requirement numbers from the Fortran standard. |
| 20 | * Check dereferences of pointers and optionals where necessary. |
| 21 | * Ensure that the scopes of all functions and variables are as local as |
| 22 | possible. |
| 23 | * Try to make all functions fit on a screen (40 lines). |
| 24 | * Build and test with both GNU and clang compilers. |
| 25 | * When submitting an update to a pull request, review previous pull request |
| 26 | comments and make sure that you've actually made all of the changes that |
| 27 | were requested. |

| 29 | ## Follow the style guide |
| 30 | The following items are taken from the [C++ style guide](C++style.md). But |
| 31 | even though I've read the style guide, they regularly trip me up. |
| 32 | * Run clang-format version 7 on all .cc and .h files. |
| 33 | * Make sure that all source lines have 80 or fewer characters. Note that |
| 34 | clang-format will do this for most code. But you may need to break up long |
| 35 | strings. |
| 36 | * Review declarations for proper use of `constexpr` and `const`. |
| 37 | * Follow the C++ naming guidelines. Ensure that the names evoke their |
| 38 | purpose and are consistent with existing code. |
| 39 | * Review pointer and reference types to make sure that you're using them |
| 40 | appropriately. Note that the [C++ style guide](C++style.md) contains a |
| 41 | section that describes all of the pointer types along with their |
| 42 | characteristics. |
| 43 | * Declare non-member functions ```static``` when possible. Prefer |
| 44 | ```static``` functions over functions in anonymous namespaces. |
