[Pull Request] guidelines are in place in order to maintain consistency and clearly communicate our process for
processing merges into the [master] branch.
## Overview
* Ensure the `Allow edits by maintainers` checkbox is checked due to our [Squash Merge](#squash-merge) policy
* Ensure you avoid a force push due to our [Squash Merge](#squash-merge) policy and [Review](#review) complications
## Squash Merge
Every [Pull Request] will be squash merged into [master]. This requires the [Pull Request] branch to be up-to-date with
the [master] branch.
## Review
Every [Pull Request] will undergo a formal review process. This process is heavily complicated if you rewrite history
and/or perform a force push, especially after a maintainer has started a review. As such we request that any action that
you merge `origin/master` into your branch to synchronize your commit after the initial review and any other action that
rewrites history.
### Requirements
The following requirements must be met for a pull request to be accepted. This list also acts as a checklist for
maintainers in their review process.
- The changes must be [documented](../prologue/documentation-contributions.md) if they add or change behaviour
- The changes must meet the following guidelines:
- [General](introduction.md#general-guidelines)
- [Commit Message](commit-message.md)
- [Database Schema](database-schema.md)
- [Documentation](documentation.md)
- [Testing](testing.md)
- [Accessibility](accessibiliy.md)
- [Style](style.md)
- The changes adhere to all of the relevant linting and quality testing automations
- The pull request closes related issues by mentioning them appropriately
- The contribution adhere to the security by design principles by:
- Setting secure defaults
- Disallows critically insecure settings
- Requires explicit awareness by users that specific settings may reduce security
- Potential future items:
- Contribution includes DCO
- Contribution includes REUSE-compliance requirements
