Contributing to the project

Since phpMyAdmin's inception in 1998, hundreds of people have contributed translations, code for new features, suggestions, and bug fixes.

The code base

The development team maintains an evolving code base from which they periodically issue releases. On http://phpmyadmin.net, the Improve page explains how anyone can contribute, and gives pointers about the project's git source code repository. A contribution (translation update, patch, new feature, and so on) will be considered with a higher priority if it refers to the latest code base, and not to an outdated phpMyAdmin version. Another useful page of instructions for using Git, which is used for storing the code base, is located at http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Git ...
