[platform-ui-dev] Platform contributor guide

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

does platform have a contributor  guide similar to EGit? http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/Contributor_Guide

I'm currently doing and creating some Gerrit reviews and I assume that for platform the following should be used:

1.) uses Unix text line file delimiters

2.) wants to have a copyright preamble

3.) discourages trailing whitespace

4.) prefers the usage of blocks for for/if/while/do statements

5.) Commit message header should be [Bug XXXXX - Bug description from Bugzilla]

6.) @Override should be used (if Plug-in is Java 1.5)

I'm not sure if my assumptions are correct and it would be great to have a wiki page to validate them (or to document them). 

A Google search for "Eclipse platform contributor guide" didn't show up anything and also http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform does not include a link.

Best regards, Lars
