For a large and diverse community like ours to be friendly, welcoming and respectful, we recognize the need for some guidelines. The project follows Apache's Code of Conduct statement. Please take some time to read and understand it.
If you feel there has been a violation of this code, please point out your concerns publicly in a friendly and matter of fact manner. Nonverbal communication is prone to misinterpretation and misunderstanding. Everyone has bad days and sometimes says things they regret later. Someone else's communication style may clash with yours, but the difference can be amicably resolved. After pointing out your concerns please be generous upon receiving an apology.
Should there be repeated instances of code of conduct violations, or if there is an obvious and severe violation, the Solr PMC may become involved.
As an Apache project we strive to follow The Apache Way. If you are new to the community or to open source in general, you may benefit from understanding our core values as a community, and why we operate the way we do.
The Solr source code resides in the Apache GIT repository. Various GIT clients can be obtained from git-scm.com. There are also GIT integrations for various IDEs. For Eclipse, look at EGit. IntelliJ has git support bundled, if you have installed the command line version.
The source code can be browsed at https://github.com/apache/solr-operator and also https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=solr-operator.git. No GIT client software is required.
