## Test
Please write a test for your addition/fix.  I know it kind of sucks, but it's how we maintain great code quality.  For our test suite, I'm using [mocha](http://visionmedia.github.com/mocha/).  You can run the tests with `npm test`.  If run into trouble with this part, please create an issue or drop me a line on Twitter ([@mikermcneil](twitter.com/mikermcneil))

## Trying out your fork with your application
If you have a project using Sails, and you want to test your new version, please do the following:

In your Sails repo:
sudo npm link

In your project repo:
sudo npm link sails

Tada!  Your project will now be using your forked version.  If you're not sure it worked, put some crazy `console.log()` in the core to make sure.  Again, if you've got any issues, hit me up ([@mikermcneil](twitter.com/mikermcneil)).<commit_msg>Updated Contributing to Sails (markdown)<commit_after>![seagull.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/npASTyA.jpg)
