Contributing Conventions

PR Title Format

PR titles must follow the Conventional Commits spec. This is enforced by the

semantic-pull-request

CI check.

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

Allowed types:

Type	When to use
`feat`	New feature
`fix`	Bug fix
`ci`	CI/CD changes
`docs`	Documentation only
`refactor`	Code restructuring without behaviour change
`test`	Adding or fixing tests
`chore`	Maintenance (deps, configs, tooling)
`perf`	Performance improvement
`build`	Build system changes
`revert`	Reverts a previous commit

Do:

ci: retry apt-get installs to handle mirror sync failures
feat(grpo): add dataclass config defaults infrastructure
fix: preserve RAY_EXPERIMENTAL_NOSET_CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES

Don't:

[ci] fix: retry apt-get installs   ← area tags are not part of this convention
Update stuff
Fix bug

Commit Sign-off

All commits must be signed off with

-s

:

bash

git commit -s -m "fix: correct reward normalization"

CI Triggering

After pushing, trigger CI with:

/ok to test <full-commit-sha>

Use

git rev-parse HEAD

(not the short form) to get the full SHA.
