This change adds a 'sandbox.sh' script (and package.json scripts) that helps to move LOCAL changes to a sanxbox both for DEVELOPMENT or to DEPLOY CODE in preparation for production builds.

USAGE of the script is outlined in updates to README.md

Determines files to IGNORE by comparing what changed between the current
BRANCH divergence point and the TIP of TRUNK

Files can be WATCHED to trigger the rsync

Submitting issues

Before submitting your issue, make sure it has not been discussed earlier. You can search for existing tickets here.

Here are some tips to consider and to help you write a great report:

Themes support Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and Edge, as well as the latest two versions of all other major browsers.
Themes are backwards compatible with the two versions prior to the current stable version of WordPress.
Themes use HTML5 markup.
Translation files should not be included in PRs, as these are handled by WordPress.com. See here for information on contributing to i18n efforts on WordPress.com.

Contributing code

Found a bug you can fix? Fantastic! Patches are always welcome. Here are a couple tips for crafting a great pull request:

Include the purpose of your PR. Be explicit about the issue your PR solves.
Reference any existing issues that relate to your PR. This allows everyone to easily see all related discussions.

By contributing code to our free themes, you grant its use under the GNU General Public License v2 (or later).

Testing pull requests

Using GitHub

Clone repository locally git clone git@github.com:Automattic/themes.git
Identify the branch of the pull request, e.g. update/#1889
Check out featured branch of pull request, e.g. git checkout update/#1889
Symlink or copy affected theme OR zip affected theme and import into WordPress site

Manually download

Identify and visit the branch of the pull request.
Change the /tree/ part of the branch's URL to archive, and add a .zip to the end to download a zip of the branch. e.g. https://github.com/Automattic/themes/tree/update/%231889 would become https://github.com/Automattic/themes/archive/update/%231889.zip
Unzip the zipped featured branch
Zip affected theme and import into WordPress site

Note: In case the affected theme already exists on the WordPress site, it needs to be deleted before the theme zip file gets uploaded.

Coding Standards

Themes code should adhere to the WordPress coding standards. This repo contains a pre-commit hook which enables you to detect and fix code that doesn't follow the standards.

To set this uo follow these instructions:

Run npm i in the root of the repo.
Run composer install

Now when you commit changes to a file PHPCBF will attempt to fix any issues with the file.

Packaging for WordPress.org Themes Showcase

The code in this repository mirrors the code needed for the theme to function correctly on WordPress.com. To prepare a theme.zip that passes the WordPress.org theme review automated test, do the following:

From the top-level directory, run ./package-dotorg.sh [theme-slug]
View the generated zip in the respective theme's sub-directory

Note that this script rebuilds the theme to strip it of .com-specific functionality, and discards any changes via git after doing so. Make sure you have committed any working changes before running this script.

Sandbox Tools

If you use a sandbox to test or develop your themes you can use a couple of utilities to operate on that sandbox.

From the top-level directory, run ./sandbox.sh clean to bring the public themes SVN repository to a clean state. (This will only matter if your sandbox uses SVN such as how WordPress.com is currently managed.) Alternately you can trigger that as an npm script: npm run sandbox:clean
From the top-level directory, run ./sandbox.sh push to push your working copy to the public themes folder of your sandbox. Alternately you can trigger this as an npm script: npm run sandbox:push This command will rsync your local copy with the exception of anything in the .sandbox-ignore file. You should clean your sandbox before pushing any changes to it. NOTE: When pushing changes if your local branch is not current with /trunk you will be prompted to choose an option:
- FORCE where all changes you have locally will be pushed to the sandbox. This is helpful if you are doing regression testing and want to make sure that every change is pushed to the sandbox. This option is used if --force is passed to the script.
- IGNORE where all of the files that were changed on the trunk since your current branch diverged will be ignored (with the exception of any files that you changed in your branch). This is helpful during development, though it is advised that you bring your branch current with /trunk before pushing any builds. This option is used if --ignore is passed to the script.
In addition to pushing your local changes you can also WATCH for any local changes and trigger the sandbox sync by using the npm run sandbox:watch Any changes to your local files will trigger the rsync. Make sure that you have executed npm install to ensure the needed dependencies for this are installed.

Note: The first time you run the sandbox.sh shell script you will be prompted for details about your sandbox which will be stored in a .sandbox-config file. Edit (or delete and be re-prompted) if details about your sandbox change. This file will not be comitted to version controll and will not sync to your sandbox.
