@leecalcote, I want to take up this issue.

[leecalcote]

Thank you, @rshivam08. Please do.

[rshivam08]

@leecalcote, Do I need to make changes in all repos available at layer5io.org or in meshery alone?

[leecalcote]

@rshivam08 across all repos available in layer5io org. 👍

[neha-saggam]

I'm a first timer :D. Looking to start open source contribution. Can I take up this issue if @rshivam08 you haven't already started working ?

[leecalcote]

@neha-saggam yes, please do. There are many repositories in the layer5io org need of receiving this update.

Hey @leecalcote, when I try to push changes to a new branch it says permission denied. Am I missing something here ? Please help,

[rshivam08]

@neha-saggam, you are trying to access the wrong remote. Please try to push your changes to https://github.com/layer5io/meshery.git

@neha-saggam if you are trying to do changes in this repo so as @rshivam08 suggested it should point to https://github.com/layer5io/meshery.git instead of https://github.com/layer5io/meshery.io.git

As @leecalcote mentioned here this change is for each of the repos in org, I started of with https://github.com/layer5io/meshery.io.git instead of https://github.com/layer5io/meshery.git. Should I not do that ?

[neha-saggam]

I am still getting permission denied for this repository as well. Am I missing something here ?

[rshivam08]

@neha-saggam, Can you please run "git remote -v" command and show the output here? Also show the command that you are using to push your changes.

[morrme]

@neha-saggam Can you visit this link ?
https://github.com/layer5io/meshery/compare/master...neha-saggam:patch-1

You have already made the change, and you should be able to initiate the pull request there.

You may need to amend your commit to sign off, but let's just get a proper PR for your work set up first.... cc @leecalcote

[morrme]

Here is my suggestion for everyone:
@leecalcote provided a convenient link to the org. There are 31 repos that would need this change.

For anyone that wants to submit a change, put a comment in here this thread with the name of the repo you're working on. That way, nobody has to overcommit to doing all of them, and more people can pitch in.
Focus on doing one at a time and it is a quick and non-overwhelming task that can be completed in minutes.
Doing it this way, this whole task could be completed within a week.

For newcomers:
This is a very easy task to help you get started with the contribution process. If you're out there lurking and don't know where to start, THIS IS YOUR ISSUE! Come in and help!

Leave a comment if you want to help but you don't know what to do. Someone will come and help you get that first PR!

Hello, I'm a newcomer. I want to help, please I'd need some help on what to do. Thanks 😊

Here's a great resource to help get you oriented as well - https://docs.google.com/document/d/17OPtDE_rdnPQxmk2Kauhm3GwXF1R5dZ3Cj8qZLKdo5E/edit

[Ruth-ikegah]

Thanks. I went through them. I made a pull request for layer5io/layer5 but it did not pass one of the checks. Please can someone help me check it?

[leecalcote]

@Ruth-ikegah you bet. The check was most likely one for DCO and whether your commits were signed. Here's an explanation and instructions on the subject - https://github.com/layer5io/meshery/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#signing-off-on-commits-developer-certificate-of-origin

[Ruth-ikegah]

Okay thanks. Noted the mistake now. I'd do it again 😊
