Eclipse

IntelliJ
style configurations are commonly useful. For IntelliJ 14, copy the style to

, start IntelliJ, go to File > Settings > Code
Style, and set the Scheme to GoogleStyle
.
If planning on making a large change, feel free to create an issue on GitHub, visit the #grpc IRC channel on Freenode, or send an email to [email protected] to discuss beforehand.
Make sure that ./gradlew build

changes. When the changes are accepted, they will be merged or cherry-picked by
a gRPC core developer.
