goreleaser is written in Go.

Prerequisites:

Other things you might need to run the tests:

Clone goreleaser anywhere:

git clone git@github.com:goreleaser/goreleaser.git

cd into the directory and install the dependencies:

task setup

A good way of making sure everything is all right is running the test suite:

task test

You can create a branch for your changes and try to build from the source as you go:

task build

When you are satisfied with the changes, we suggest you run:

task ci

Before you commit the changes, we also suggest you run:

task fmt

Commit messages should be well formatted, and to make that "standardized", we are using Conventional Commits.

You can follow the documentation on their website.

Push your branch to your goreleaser fork and open a pull request against the main branch.

You can contribute in our OpenCollective or to any of the contributors directly. See this page for more details.
