= Requesting an extension version update {{updated}} =
 
 
 
On your local fork, the idea is to create the following topic branches:
 
* <code>update-<YourExtensionName></code> based of [https://github.com/Slicer/ExtensionsIndex/tree/master <code>master</code>] integration branch.
 
* <code>update-<YourExtensionName>-4.2.0</code> based of [https://github.com/Slicer/ExtensionsIndex/tree/4.2.0 <code>4.2.0</code>] integration branch.
 
 
 
== Extensions build against Slicer trunk ==
 
 
 
The following instruction describes how to contribute extension description file updates for an extension being built against slicer trunk.
 
 
 
* Update the master branch of both your local clone and your online ExtensionsIndex fork
 
<pre>
 
git add upstream git://github.com/Slicer/ExtensionsIndex  # Add reference to the authoritative ExtensionsIndex
 
git fetch upstream                                        # Fetch change of the authoritative ExtensionsIndex
 
git checkout master                                        # Checkout master
 
git reset --hard upstream/master                          # Reset your local master branch using the authoritative master
 
git push origin master                                    # Update the master branch of your online fork
 
</pre>
 
* Create a branch named update-<YourExtensionName> in the clone of your forked ExtensionsIndex
 
<pre>
 
git checkout -b update-<YourExtensionName>
 
</pre>
 
* Regenerate the <YourExtensionName>.s4ext file by configuring your extension with CMake
 
* Commit the <YourExtensionName>.s4ext file to your cloned ExtensionIndex repository (provide a meaningful commit comment)
 
* Push modifications to your ExtensionIndex fork on github
 
* Submit a pull request to https://github.com/Slicer/ExtensionsIndex (provide a meaningful commit comment)
