8. `git push <your-remote-name> HEAD:refs/for/master`
9. Assign reviewer for change at http://review.prometheus.io/
That's all!
## Getting Started
1. Reach out via our [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/prometheus-developers) and ask us what
the current priorities are. We can find a good isolated starter project for
you.
2. Keeping code hygiene is important. We thusly have a practical preference
for the following:
1. Run ``make format`` to ensure the correctness of the Go code's layout.
2. Run ``make advice`` to find facial errors with a static analyzer.
3. Try to capture your changes in some form of a test. Go makes it easy to
write [Table Driven Tests](https://code.google.com/p/go-wiki/wiki/TableDrivenTests).
There is no mandate to use this said scaffolding mechanism, but it _can_
make your life easier in the right circumstances.
3. Welcome aboard!
