+
+## Testing
+
+## Submitting changes
+
+Always write a clear log message for your commits. One-line messages are fine for small changes, but bigger changes should look like this:
+
+    $ git commit -m "A brief summary of the commit
+    > 
+    > A paragraph describing what changed and its impact."
+
+## Coding conventions

+  * We indent using tab, see https://qelectrotech.org/wiki_new/doc/qt_creator#on_ajoute_le_style_de_code_qet
