Follow .github/copilot-instructions.md for repository-specific development guidance.
Before filing a GitHub issue in this repository:
- Search existing open and closed issues for duplicates.
- Use the GitHub issue forms in
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/; do not file a blank issue unless a maintainer explicitly asks for one. - Use
package_issue.ymlfor package behavior problems,package_request.ymlfor new package requests,update_request.ymlfor version update requests, andfeature_request.ymlfor repository or process improvements. - Do not file WinGet client issues here; use
microsoft/winget-clifor client behavior. - Keep issue bodies concise and evidence-based. Do not paste large speculative patches into issue bodies; open a pull request or link a branch when manifest changes are available.
Before opening a pull request:
- Review
CONTRIBUTING.mdand follow the repository PR template. - Modify exactly one package per PR.
- Validate manifests locally when practical with
winget validate --manifest <path-to-version-folder>. - Do not recursively scan or search the entire
manifests/directory; work only in the specific package folder being modified. - Summarize validation performed, or explain why validation was not run.
