Add some documentation to contribute to the project #45

Closed whiver closed 6 years ago

whiver commented 6 years ago

It would be find if we had more documentation about how to contribute to the project, cause I cannot manage to build the source code to solve issue #44.

I installed protoc and ran mvn test but I get errors about packages not found like that:

[ERROR] /home/wsh/Documents/protobuf-java-format/target/generated-test-sources/protobuf_unittest/UnittestProto.java:[13217,44] error: package com.google.protobuf.GeneratedMessageV3 does not exist

I suppose there is some more steps to generate these files but I don't know which...

Okay I finally got it work by updating the Protobuf dependency to v3.5.0.

Would you like to create such doc? A pull request is welcome

Yep, I'll see that.
