7 https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests

11 Your pull requests will then be reviewed and discussed.
15 Nominatim historically hasn't followed a particular coding style but we
16 are in process of consolodating the style. The following rules apply:
18 * Python code uses the official Python style
21 * all other file types use 4 spaces
22 * [BSD style](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style#Allman_style) for braces
24 * spaces before and after equal signs and operators
26 * no spaces after opening and before closing bracket
27 * leave out space between a function name and bracket
28 but add one between control statement(if, while, etc.) and bracket
30 This coding style must be applied to any new or changed code. You are also
31 welcome to fix the coding style of existing code but please submit separate
36 Before submitting a pull request make sure that the following tests pass:
