-# Contributing to geckodriver
-
-The geckodriver project welcomes contributions from everyone. There are a
-number of ways you can help:
-
-## Issue Reports
-
-When opening new issues or commenting on existing issues please make
-sure discussions are related to concrete technical issues with the
-geckodriver or Marionette software.
-
-For issue reports to be actionable, it must be clear exactly what the
-observed and expected behaviours are, and how to set up the state required
-to observe the erroneous behaviour. The most useful thing to provide is a
-minimal HTML file which allows the problem to be reproduced, plus a
-trace-level log from geckodriver showing the wire-protocol calls used to set
-up the problem. Please provide [concise reproducible test
-cases](http://sscce.org/) and describe what results you are seeing and what
-results you expect. Because of the wide variety of client bindings for
-WebDriver, clients scripts and logs are typically not very useful if the
-verbose geckodriver logs are available. Issues relating to a specific client
-should be filed in the issue tracker of that project.
-
-## Code Contributions
-
-If you're looking for easy bugs, have a look at
-[issues labelled E-easy](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Aeasy+)
-on Github.
-
-This document will guide you through the contribution process.
-
-### Step 1: Fork
-
-Fork the project [on Github](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver)
-and check out your copy locally.
-
-```text
-% git clone git@github.com:username/geckodriver.git
-% cd geckodriver
-% git remote add upstream git://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver.git
-```
-
-### Step 2: Branch
-
-Create a feature branch and start hacking:
-
-```text
-% git checkout -b my-feature-branch
-```
-
-We practice HEAD-based development, which means all changes are applied
-directly on top of master.
-
-### Step 3: Commit
-
-First make sure git knows your name and email address:
-
-```text
-% git config --global user.name 'Santa Claus'
-% git config --global user.email 'santa@example.com'
-```
-
-The first line must be meaningful as it's what people see when they
-run `git shortlog` or `git log --oneline`.
-
-### Step 4: Rebase
-
-Use `git rebase` (not `git merge`) to sync your work from time to time.
-
-```text
-% git fetch upstream
-% git rebase upstream/master
-```
-
-### Step 5: Push
-
-```text
-% git push my-feature-branch
-```
-
-Go to https://github.com/yourusername/geckodriver and press the _Pull
-Request_ and fill out the form.
-
-Pull requests are usually reviewed within a few days. Reviews will be done
-through [Reviewable](https://reviewable.io/reviews/mozilla/geckodriver)
-
-### Step 6: Integration
-
-When code review is complete, a committer will take your PR and
-integrate it on geckodriver's master branch. Because we like to keep a
-linear history on the master branch, we will normally squash and rebase
-your branch history.
