  58 Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `cached-property` for local development.
  59
  60 1. Fork the `cached-property` repo on GitHub.
  61 2. Clone your fork locally::
  62
  63     $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/cached-property.git
  64
  65 3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development::
  66
  67     $ mkvirtualenv cached-property
  68     $ cd cached-property/
  69     $ python setup.py develop
  70
  71 4. Create a branch for local development::
  72
  73     $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
  74
  75    Now you can make your changes locally.
  76
  77 5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox::
  78
  79     $ flake8 cached-property tests
  80     $ python setup.py test
  81     $ tox
  82
  83    To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.
  84
  85 6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub::
  86
  87     $ git add .
  88     $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
  89     $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
  90
  91 7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
  92
  93 Pull Request Guidelines
  94 -----------------------
  95
  96 Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
  97
  98 1. The pull request should include tests.
  99 2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
 100    your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
 101    feature to the list in README.rst.
 102 3. The pull request should work for Python 2.7, and 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 and for PyPy. Check
 103    https://travis-ci.org/pydanny/cached-property/pull_requests
 104    and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
