Development procedures
This page documents the development procedures used and required to push to code to cloudera/flume master.

We use reviewboard for code reviews, hosted here .

The patches are accepted but should meet the following criteria:

• must pass all test cases cleanly.
• should have a corresponding jira issue filed here .
• should introduce no findbugs errors.
• should not include any new libraries into core unless agreed upon. New libraries for build/test should be added and grabbed via ivy. New libraries that are ASF/MIT/BSD licensed can be included in plugins.
