Contributing

Contributions are welcome.

Ensure any testing or build dependencies are removed before committing your changes. Running rubocop before you commit will reveal linting problems before they make their way into the commit log, and may save a rebase. Update the README.md with details of changes to the available script commands. You may merge the Pull Request in once you have the sign-off of at least one other developer, or if you do not have permission to do that, you may request the second reviewer to merge it for you.
