Note on Patches/Pull Requests

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not bump version. (If you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull).
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
