### Setup your Minio Github Repository
Fork [Minio upstream](https://github.com/Minio-io/minio/fork) source repository to your own personal repository. Copy the URL and pass it to ``go get`` command. Go uses git to clone a copy into your project workspace folder.
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/$USER_ID/minio
$ cd minio
$ mkdir -p ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/minio-io
$ ln -s ${PWD} $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio-io/
```
### Compiling Minio from source
Minio uses ``Makefile`` to wrap around some of the limitations of ``go build``. To compile Minio source, simply change to your workspace folder and type ``make``.
```sh
$ make
Checking if proper environment variables are set.. Done
...
Checking dependencies for Minio.. Done
...
...
```
### Developer Guidelines
``Minio`` community welcomes your contribution. To make the process as seamless as possible, we ask for the following:
* Go ahead and fork the project and make your changes. We encourage pull requests to discuss code changes.
- Fork it
- Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
- Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
- Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
- Create new Pull Request
* If you have additional dependencies for ``Minio``, ``Minio`` manages its depedencies using [godep](https://github.com/tools/godep)
- Run `go get foo/bar`
- Edit your code to import foo/bar
- Run `make save` from top-level directory (or `godep restore && godep save ./...`).
* When you're ready to create a pull request, be sure to:
- Have test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do it, please ask in your pull request.
- Run `go fmt`
- Squash your commits into a single commit. `git rebase -i`. It's okay to force update your pull request.
- Make sure `go test -race ./...` and `go build` completes.
* Read [Effective Go](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments) article from Golang project
- `Minio` project is strictly conformant with Golang style
- if you happen to observe offending code, please feel free to send a pull request
