Hi, Needed to ask some more things : -the subsequent builds will automatically be incremental right?
Yes, unless you touch some widely used header files.
-for filing a bug/working on one : do I need to do it through bugzilla or gerrit? and how?
If you have found a bug, it's best to file it on bugzilla first and then submit fixes/patches for it in gerrit (mentioning the bug number in the commit message). Regarding how, you might want to look at these: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/gerrit https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla
-how do I pull the latest changes before building my build and submitting my patch?
`git pull` should be enough to pull the latest changes and rebase your current changes on top of that.
And there is an easy hack on Bugzilla : Bug 55410 (https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55410) I wanted to fix it for KDE rather than windows, how do I file in a new bug (gerrit/bugzilla) and how?
Comment 16 reports that it's broken for Linux as well. Also, the bug fields doesn't mention it to be a Window specific bug; so, no need to file a separate bug. You might want to read the commit that breaks it for Linux. Did you already do that? If yes, I think it's best to dump your findings on the bug so that others can help you wherever you are stuck. -- Regards, Pranav
