34 Feature Branches are easy to make.
35 You do not have to be a committer to make one.
36 Just request the name of your branch be added to JIRA up on the developer's mailing list and a committer will add it for you.
37 Thereafter you can file issues against your feature branch in Apache HBase JIRA.
38 Your code you keep elsewhere -- it should be public so it can be observed -- and you can update dev mailing list on progress.
39 When the feature is ready for commit, 3 +1s from committers will get your feature merged.

44 .How to set fix version in JIRA on issue resolve
46 Here is how we agreed to set versions in JIRA when we
47 resolve an issue. If master is going to be 3.0.0, branch-2 will be 2.4.0, and branch-1 will be
50 * Commit only to master (i.e., backward-incompatible new feature): Mark with 3.0.0
51 * Commit only to master and branch-2 (i.e., backward-compatible new feature, applicable only to
52 2.x+): Mark with 3.0.0 and 2.4.0
53 * Commit to master, branch-2, and branch-1 (i.e., backward-compatible new feature, applicable
54 everywhere): Mark with 3.0.0, 2.4.0, and 1.7.0
55 * Commit to master, branch-2, and branch-2.3, branch-1, branch-1.4 (i.e., bug fix
56 applicable to all active release lines): Mark with 3.0.0, 2.4.0, 2.3.x, 1.7.0, and 1.4.x
57 * Commit a fix to the website: no version

60 .Policy on when to set a RESOLVED JIRA as CLOSED
62 We agreed that for issues that list multiple releases in their _Fix Version/s_ field, CLOSE the issue on the release of any of the versions listed; subsequent change to the issue must happen in a new JIRA.
64 [[no.permanent.state.in.zk]]
65 .Only transient state in ZooKeeper!
67 You should be able to kill the data in zookeeper and hbase should ride over it recreating the zk content as it goes.
68 This is an old adage around these parts.
69 We just made note of it now.
70 We also are currently in violation of this basic tenet -- replication at least keeps permanent state in zk -- but we are working to undo this breaking of a golden rule.
77 Each maintained release branch has a release manager, who volunteers to coordinate new features and bug fixes are backported to that release.
78 The release managers are link:https://hbase.apache.org/team-list.html[committers].
79 If you would like your feature or bug fix to be included in a given release, communicate with that release manager.
80 If this list goes out of date or you can't reach the listed person, reach out to someone else on the list.
82 NOTE: End-of-life releases are not included in this list.

102 == Commit Message format
104 We agreed to the following Git commit message format:
107 HBASE-xxxxx <title>. (<contributor>)
109 If the person making the commit is the contributor, leave off the '(<contributor>)' element.
