# How to contribute

1. Generate an SSH key pair via `ssh-keygen` in your terminal (make sure not to overwrite an existing key!).

2. Add the configuration in `.ssh/config` to your local SSH configuration file.

3. Point the `IdentityFile` parameter to your local key file location (in most cases `~/.ssh/id_ed25519` or equivalent with RSA).

4. Go into your Gitea Settings, then SSH/GPG Keys section, then upload your public key (in most cases, a file called `id_ed25519.pub`).

5. You can now contribute code!
