It's me again :-) I just have some questions about committing on Sourceforge. Is there any convention into messages ?
No real convention. I like to add the plugin name I've done something on to my commit message whereas others don't do so. Just try to be clear inside message so "Some minor update" might not the best choice.
May we commit as much as we want ?
This was under discussion before. You will need to find a compromise between the extremes: Its not useful to commit every singe linge change but a commit including 20 new features as well as 10 bug fixes is also not a too good idea. Usually we try to commit one feature with one commit but this is depending on the feature and other environmental parameters. Bigger features might be useful to develop inside an special branch.
Are there some (strict) limitations ? Probably I'll only commit files for my plugin but...
No real restriction, but we try to only commit changes direct to plugins we are maintaining personal. In every other case we usually sending patches to maintainer of the plugin.
