## Contributing
Before reporting a bug, you should try stripping down your Vim
configuration and removing other plugins. The sad nature of VimScript
is that it is fraught with incompatibilities waiting to happen. I'm
happy to work around them where I can, but it's up to you to isolate
the conflict.
If your [commit message sucks](http://stopwritingramblingcommitmessages.com/),
I'm not going to accept your pull request. I've explained very politely
dozens of times that
[my general guidelines](http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html)
are absolute rules on my own repositories, so I may lack the energy to
explain it to you yet another time. And please, if I ask you to change
something, `git commit --amend`.
Beyond that, don't be shy about asking before patching. What takes you
hours might take me minutes simply because I have both domain knowledge
and a perverse knowledge of VimScript so vast that many would consider
it a symptom of mental illness. On the flip side, some ideas I'll
reject no matter how good the implementation is. "Send a patch" is an
edge case answer in my book.
