Found a bugbug A bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority.? Create a ticket in the bug tracker.
Want to contribute? Get started quickly with tickets marked as good first bugs for new contributors or join a bug scrub. There’s more on the reports page, like patches needing testing, and on feature projects page.
Other questions? Here is a detailed handbook for contributors, complete with tutorials.

When making a patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing., you don’t need to worry about the minified versions of the js and css files. Just patch the development versions. On commit, we’ll handle the compression. It’s less work for you, it keeps the patches leaner and easier to skim, and it allows us to verify that the minified and development versions are in sync. (In case you’re wondering though, we do use the YUI compressor, and JavaScriptJavaScript JavaScript or JS is an object-oriented computer programming language commonly used to create interactive effects within web browsers. WordPress makes extensive use of JS for a better user experience. While PHP is executed on the server, JS executes within a user’s browser. https://www.javascript.com/. is optionally munged.)

Thanks for making a post about it [I assume in response to the Background APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways. ticketticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker.].

I was thinking about it when I was working on my patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing. & wasn’t sure if it was needed for people to test or not. I assumed it would be re-minified on commit though.

  meant to include that i re submitted the patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing. without it 🙂

  No problem. It wasn’t any patchpatch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing. in particular. I’ve just seen it a few times lately and I realized the guideline wasn’t written down anywhere, except in the IRCIRC Internet Relay Chat, a network where users can have conversations online. IRC channels are used widely by open source projects, and by WordPress. The primary WordPress channels are #wordpress and #wordpress-dev, on irc.freenode.net. logs from a dev chat months ago (if I recall correctly). You can test the development versions using SCRIPT_DEBUG of course. That said, you didn’t need to bother patching it again — in the end, we are quite flexible. 🙂
  
  I’d like to spend some time at the conclusion of the dev cycle to update the Codex or TracTrac An open source project by Edgewall Software that serves as a bug tracker and project management tool for WordPress. Wiki pages for contributing to coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. and how we use Trac (milestones, priorities, owners, applying keywords, etc.). This is kind of in line with talk about coming up with a community guidelines document of some sort.

Do you guys do the YUI Compressor on build or does someone run it manually and check it in?
- Andrew Nacin 8:08 am on March 25, 2010
  
  Manually. It’d be sweet to happen on build, but our existing commit hooksHooks In WordPress theme and development, hooks are functions that can be applied to an action or a Filter in WordPress. Actions are functions performed when a certain event occurs in WordPress. Filters allow you to modify certain functions. Arguments used to hook both filters and actions look the same. are flaky as it is, so I’m not holding my breath. 🙂
