============
The preferred way to report bugs about diffoscope, as well as suggest fixes and
requests for improvements, is to submit reports to the Debian bug tracker for
the ``diffoscope`` package. You can do this over e-mail, simply write an email
as follows:
::
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Subject: <subject>
Source: diffoscope
Version: <version>
Severity: <grave|serious|important|normal|minor|wishlist>
There are `more detailed instructions available
<https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting>`__ about reporting a bug in the Debian
bug tracker.
If you're on a Debian-based system, you can install and use the ``reportbug``
package to help walk you through the process.

You can also submit patches to the Debian bug tracker. Start by cloning the `Git
repository <https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope>`__,
make your changes and commit them as you normally would. You can then use
Git's ``format-patch`` command to save your changes as a series of patches that
can be attached to the report you submit. For example:
::
git clone https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope.git
cd diffoscope
git checkout origin/master -b <topicname>
# <edits>
git commit -a
git format-patch -M origin/master
You can also submit bugs about Debian specific issues to the Debian bug tracker.
The ``format-patch`` command will create a series of ``.patch`` files in your
checkout. Attach these files to your submission in your e-mail client or
reportbug.
